Almost 300 passengers were evacuated from a Greek ferry today after a huge fire (right) broke out on board in the middle of the night (top left). The blaze started at 4.30am on the Italian-flagged Euroferry Olympia, which was sailing through the Ionian Sea to Italy from the Greek port city of Igoumenitsa on Friday. One crew member, 42, was injured and the 290 on the ship were rescued (bottom left), the Greek coastguard said. There could be stowaways trapped on board the burning ship, such as migrants who frequently sneak on ferries between Greece and Italy. A Greek coastguard spokeswoman said it would take several hours to extinguish the fire.
