A severe storm, reaching 120 kilometers per hour on the Spanish island of Mallorca, negatively affects life. With the effect of the storm, the ropes of the Britannia tourist ship, where thousands of passengers were anchored in Palma Port, were broken. The ship, which left the pier and started to drift, crashed into the cargo ship in the port. While there was great panic during the collision, some passengers were slightly injured. The ship’s captain said in a statement that there was minor damage to the fifth deck of the ship.
FLIGHTS CANCELED
Chairs and umbrellas in hotels were blown up due to heavy rains and strong winds that were effective across Mallorca. As a result of the falling trees, material damage occurred to some vehicles and at least 20 flights were canceled.
The British tourist ship Britannia, which left Southampton Harbor on August 18 for a two-week Mediterranean tour, has 13 decks, a capacity of 3,647 guests and a crew of 1,350. (UAV)
