Onboard cameras captured the shocking moment a cargo ship was broken in two by a huge wave off Turkey's Black Sea province of Bartin earlier this month.

Three sailors died when the Ukrainian-owned Arvin sank in heavy seas on Jan. 16 after the wave snapped its keel near the bow.

The Turkish Maritime Authority released the video, which also recorded crew members making a mayday call for help on the voyage between Georgia and Bulgaria.

A search operation rescued the other members of the mainly Ukrainian crew.
