Another ship in 'near miss' with wreck , Tuesday, 17 December, 2002, 13:25 GMT
A fourth vessel nearly became involved in a collision with the sunken freighter Tricolor in the English Channel. Photographs just released suggest a ship was about 100 metres from hitting the submerged vessel before it was warned to change course by a UK coastguard aircraft shaking its wings.
This latest incident will further fuel claims France mishandled the aftermath of a collision in its waters.
