Ferries clash
Two Rederi AB Gotland ferries have collided in fog at the port of Nynashamn in Sweden, injuring 12 people.
Rescue services spokesman Anders Edstam said the vessels crashed into each other on Thursday, leaving one person seriously hurt and 11 others with more minor injuries.
The incident involved the 29,700-gt Gotland (built 2003), which hit the side of the 6,600-gt Gotlandia II (2006), tearing a hole in its side. The combined number of passengers on board was about 1,800.
Rescue services had received no reports of either ferry taking in water after the collision.
The vessels carry people to the summer resort island of Gotland in the Baltic.
