Two cargo ships have collided in the international waters of the Aegean Sea
(Turkey), causing damage. No injuries were reported.
Maritime authorities say the Malta-flagged Marti Princess rammed into the
German-flagged Renate Schulte late Saturday off the Turkish island of
Bozcaada, near the Dardanelles strait.
Authorities said Sunday that 11 of the 18 crew members of the Marti Princess
have been evacuated upon request from the ship's captain. They say there are
17 crew members aboard the Renate Schulte.
The cause of the accident is not clear. Rescue work is under way to separate
the ships.
