12 people still missing after two stranded truck drivers rescued from burning Greek ferry

CORFU, Greece — Rescue specialists boarded a burning ferry in Greece to free two truck drivers who had been stranded inside the vessel for more than 15 hours Friday, but hope was fading for 12 others reported missing.

The rescuers descended from a helicopter onto the ship through thick clouds of smoke to eventually locate the two men inside the Euroferry Olympia ferry who had spent hours on a parking deck waiting for help.

The coast guard said 278 passengers and crew had been rescued earlier in the day from a fire that engulfed the Italy-bound ferry with 291 people on board near the Greek island of Corfu.

The cause of the blaze was unclear. The Italy-based ferry company said it started in a hold where vehicles were parked.

Officials confirmed that nationals from Albania, Turkey, Bulgaria, Romania, Greece, Italy, and Lithuania were among the rescued.

“I thought death had come from me,” Albanian truck driver Zef Lufi told the Associated Press after his rescue. “There was so much smoke. I thought we wouldn’t make it. It took us about an hour and a half before we got into the lifeboats and about three more hours before we were picked up.”

The rescued passengers, many wrapped in foil blankets, were all transported to Corfu where 10 people were hospitalized. None were in serious condition and most had breathing difficulties.
