Bulk carriers collide in Greece
Two dry bulk carriers collided 10 nautical miles west from the Greek island of Kithira in the southern Peloponnese early on Saturday morning.
The Liberian-flagged Kiveli crashed with its prow midship into the Maltese-flagged Afina I. No injuries were reported while water ingress has occurred on both ships.
Authorities deployed significant resources to the area with the two ships towed to a nearby bay yesterday and floating barriers put around them to contain any potential spills.
