Seems like a ship/tanker has run aground and will be beached somewhere along the Devon coast. Given that the ship is no doubt seriously damaged, they'll be some pollution problems:

"The MSC Napoli, which was holed in the English Channel on Thursday, is carrying more than 2,330 containers.

A "small proportion" includes industrial and agricultural chemicals, according to the Maritime and Coastguard Agency (MCA).

The ship was beached following "serious structural failure", the MCA said."

Yup, the pollution got out and is harming the wildlife. What a shame, what a waste :(
