Greek maritime unions stage a three-hour work stoppage on June 26 from 19.00 till 22.00 after a surge in summer ferry routes left the Athens-area port unable to dock all its vessels, forcing some crews to spend nights anchored offshore.

A passenger ferry crashed into Rafina Port’s northern pier, splitting the structure in two without causing injuries or pollution.

The rerouting is intended to ensure passengers' safety and prevent any impeding of fire-fighting efforts in east and northeast Attica prefecture
