BANGKOK — Ten Navy sailors were missing and five were injured on Monday after a United States destroyer collided with an oil tanker off the coast of Singapore, the Navy said, the second accident involving a Navy ship and a cargo vessel in recent months.
The guided-missile destroyer, the John S. McCain, was passing east of the Strait of Malacca on its way to a port visit in Singapore at 5:24 a.m. local time, before dawn broke, when it collided with the Alnic MC, a 600-foot vessel that transports oil and chemicals, the Navy said. The destroyer was damaged near the rear on its port, or left-hand, side.
Ten sailors on the ship were unaccounted for, and five others were injured, a Navy official said. Ships with the Singapore Navy and helicopters from the assault ship America were rushing to search for survivors. Four of the injured were transported by a Singapore military helicopter to Singapore, where they were being treated for conditions that were not believed to be life-threatening. The fifth injured sailor did not require additional medical attention, according to the Seventh Fleet.
While the collision involved a Navy vessel and a commercial tanker, the incident highlighted the geopolitical dangers surrounding the South China Sea, where China has been challenging American naval dominance. It also raised questions about the safety record of Navy ships, since the incident came just two months after seven people were killed when another Navy destroyer collided with a freighter off Japan.

सिंगापुर के तट पर एक तेल टैंकर से टकराने के बाद सोमवार को दस नौसेना के नाविक लापता थे और पांच घायल हो गए थे, नौसेना ने कहा, हाल के महीनों में नौसेना जहाज और एक कार्गो पोत से जुड़े दूसरे दुर्घटना।
निर्देशित-मिसाइल विध्वंसक, जॉन एस। मककेन, सुबह 5:24 बजे सिंगापुर में बंदरगाह की यात्रा के रास्ते पर मलक्का के पूर्व की तरफ से गुजर रहा था, सुबह से पहले, जब यह अलिकन एमसी से टकरा गया था, 600 फुट के पोत जो तेल और रसायनों का परिवहन करता है, नौसेना ने कहा। विनाशक अपने बंदरगाह, या बायीं ओर, पीछे की तरफ के पास क्षतिग्रस्त हो गया था।
नौसेना के एक अधिकारी ने कहा कि जहाज पर दस नाविक बेहिसाब थे और पांच अन्य घायल हुए थे। हमले जहाज से सिंगापुर नौसेना और हेलीकॉप्टर जहाज के साथ अमेरिका जीवित बचे लोगों की खोज के लिए दौड़ रहा था। चार घायलों को एक सिंगापुर सैन्य हेलीकॉप्टर से सिंगापुर तक पहुंचाया गया था, जहां उन्हें इलाज के लिए इलाज किया जा रहा था जो कि जीवन-धमकी के लिए नहीं माना जाता था। सातवां बेड़े के अनुसार, पांचवां घायल समुद्री डाकू को अतिरिक्त चिकित्सा की आवश्यकता नहीं थी।
एक टक्कर में नौसेना पोत और एक वाणिज्यिक टैंकर शामिल था, इस घटना ने दक्षिण चीन सागर के आसपास के भू-राजनीतिक खतरों पर प्रकाश डाला, जहां चीन अमेरिकी नौसैनिक प्रभुत्व को चुनौती दे रहा था। इसमें नौसेना के जहाजों के सुरक्षा रिकॉर्ड के बारे में सवाल भी उठाए गए थे, क्योंकि इस घटना के दो महीने बाद ही सात लोगों की मौत हो गई थी जब दूसरे नौसेना के विनाशकारी जापान से एक मालवाहक के साथ टकरा गया था।
