US report warns foreign adversaries could exploit Baltimore bridge collapse

The collapse of the Francis Scott Key Bridge in Baltimore "reduced the resiliency of US port and shipping operations" and could create "opportunities for foreign adversary exploitation," according to a new intelligence report obtained by ABC News. 

The bridge collapse has rerouted $80 million in maritime cargo and trucking and the document said any disruptions at other ports "could have an outsized impact on the flow of goods that is not easily mitigated."
