ATHENS—Two cargo vessels collided off the Greek island of Chios near the Turkish cost on Friday, authorities said.
The Singapore-flagged cargo vessel Potentia with 19 crew members and the Vanuatu-flagged ship ANT with 13 crew collided in the eastern Aegean Sea nine miles north of Chios.
It was not immediately clear what had caused the collision. Greek authorities have deployed seven vessels and a search and rescue helicopter to the site.
