Well, that is actually true, the efforts to pump out the fuel oil have been hampered by 5 metre swells.
Also ... look at those containers! How can they get them off? It's a precision job with a huge-ass land-based crane even when the ship of upright next to a dock in nice still water with the containers properly upright. Refloating is probably impossible because of the structural damage to the ship, she'll probably break up. It is a grade one SNAFU. The ship is FUBAR.
