It is reported that the Grandi Navi Veloci ferry crashed into the Viking Star liner, which simply stood on the quay in the port. At the moment, all the circumstances and causes of the accident are established. Probably, the collision of two ships occurred due to a technical malfunction of the ferry or simply the inattention of its driver, since there was neither poor visibility nor strong excitement.

The very departure of the passenger liner had to be delayed for repair work.

About victims not reported. The cost of damage caused by a ferry-boat is established.

As reported in "URA-Inform", recently in Germany on the Rhine River in Duisburg, the huge cruise ship Swiss Crystal crashed into the support of the road bridge, which affected not less than 27 people.
