01:04 am (0504 GMT). - Loaded with shipping containers, Dali departs from Baltimore's port, heads to Colombo, Sri Lanka.

01:24 am - Dali slowly approaches the Key Bridge, according to a video captured by StreamTime Live.

Maryland's governor says the ship's mayday call enabled officials to limit traffic on Baltimore's Key Bridge before the crash that caused the bridge to collapse.
