There are no reported injuries, and there is zero risk of pollution, a coast guard official informed Reuters, further adding that the vessels were not carrying cargo.

It was not clear immediately what the cause of the collision was. Relevant Greek authorities have reportedly deployed seven vessels and a reliable search and rescue helicopter to the site.
