It's March 28th. Welcome in. This is Global News Today, where global headlines meet AI. A humpback whale is in trouble again in the Baltic Sea just days after a big rescue of Germany's North Coast. This massive creature, measuring 12 to 15 meters long, got stuck on a sandbank at Tim Indorfer Strand Beach earlier this week. Rescuers dug a tunnel with an excavator, and it swam free on Friday morning, heading east toward Wismar Bay. By Saturday, it was stranded once more, and those shallow waters near Wismar and Mecklenburg, Pomerania. Greenpeace confirmed the news, and Environment officials spotted it there around noon. No word get on whether they'll launch another full rescue operation. The first effort grabbed global headlines, with live streams, news alerts, and boats from the Coast Guard and fire department creating waves to guide, it deeper. They even used noise to nudge it along the trench, and the whale hummed back in response. Researchers say this whale probably wandered from the Atlantic, chasing herring, or on a

male migration pattern. The Baltic's low salt levels and wrong food supply it, with no long-term shot. It's already showing a skin condition and won't survive without heading. Back hundreds of kilometers through German and Danish waters. For now, everyone's watching closely, hoping this humpback finds its way home before it's too late. Stay tuned for updates on the Salty Saga.
