An incident involving Russian tourists occurred in Japan.

The cruise liner was unable to set sail due to a technical malfunction.

As reported by the RBC agency, as a result, several hundred passengers traveling on board the cruise liner Spectrum of the Seas were stuck in Yokohama, Japan.

It is noted that the ship should have already set off on its journey in order to reach its destination, the city of Shanghai, by November 9.

However, due to unexpected technical difficulties, the ship remained in port.

According to estimates of passengers on board, the number of Russians could reach 500-600 people.

People are worried that their expensive return tickets will be wasted. According to eyewitnesses, the situation could have been saved if the passengers had been allowed to fly from Tokyo to Shanghai.

However, eyewitnesses to the incident claim that they are not being given their passports, so they are forced to wait for a decision from the owner of the plane, who has not made any contact.
