ATHENS, Greece (Reuters) - Authorities reported two cargo ships collided off the Greek island of Chios near the Turkish coast on Friday, but there were no casualties.
The Singapore-flagged cargo tanker Potentia and the Vanuatu-flagged ship ANT collided in the eastern Aegean Sea, nine miles north of Chios.
"There are no injuries, and there is no risk of pollution," a coast guard officer said on condition of anonymity to Reuters, adding that the ships were not carrying cargo.
The official went on to say that it was unclear what had caused the crash. The Greek authorities have sent seven ships and a search and rescue chopper to the scene.
