2/Good news is she is not blocking the channel and the large Turkish-flagged salvage/rescue vessel #NeneHatun is on location.
Ships will standby off #Istanbul and the northern side of the #Bosphrous until the Turkish officials reopen the channel.

She is about as downtown as a ship can get.
MV #LadyZehma has been freed about 2200 hours UTC and moved to the anchorage off Istanbul.
She is showing at anchor and probably needs a hull inspection before continuing her voyage.
