Greek ferryboat Eleftherios Venizelos evacuated after fire breaks out

The fire on Eleftherios Venizelos with destination Chania, Crete, probably started on a truck. The rescue and research operations centre was immediately informed and nine Coast Guard vessels, tugboats, a trunk vessel and three passenger ships rushed in the area.

The Fire Brigade also assisted with two ships and a special unit for disasters. All passengers are good in health and some of them have been transferred to nearby hotels.
