Footage shows the ongoing efforts underway to clear the debris and wreckage from the Francis Scott Key Bridge in the Patapsco River in Baltimore, Maryland.

The unified command of the Key Bridge Response operation said it remained dedicated to the task of removing containers, clearing wreckage, and collecting debris from the water.

The ongoing operation aims to swiftly and safely open the Fort McHenry channel, marking it as a top priority.

Teams continue tasks to mitigate the impact of debris and wreckage on the river, working to ensure the safe navigation of vessels through the crucial waterway.

The Dali vessel reportedly lost power before ramming into a support pillar of the bridge, plunging the structure into the river as it fell apart within seconds early morning on March 26.

The ship's pilot reportedly issued a 'mayday call' minutes before the collision, allowing Maryland transportation officers to stop oncoming traffic onto the bridge.
