Tanker carrying fuel runs aground on sandy shoal outside Psara harbour

The tanker "EKO II" carrying an unknown quantity of fuel ran aground on a sandy shoal outside the harbour of the island of Psara on Tuesday, about 140 metres from the shore.

The tanker had set sail from Mytilene port with 17 people on board.

A coast guard patrol boat has responded and has approached the tanker, while a tug is expected to arrive from the island Chios to help pull the tanker free.
