Two Bulk Carriers Collide In Greece, As Crew Aboard Safe
Two dry bulk carriers collided 10 nautical miles west from the Greek island of Kithira in the southern Peloponnese over the weekend.
According to reports there were no injuries aboard the Liberian-flagged Kiveli which crashed with its prow midship into the Maltese-flagged Afina I.
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.
