Greek Ferry Fire Deaths

The Italian prosecutor investigating a deadly fire on the Norman Atlantic ferry on Thursday indicated that at least 27 people had likely perished in the disaster.

Four more maritime officials were put under formal investigation today as a charred ferry was towed into the Italian port of Brindisi and authorities prepared to search it for possible more dead.

Ten passengers dead, dozen unaccounted for and no-one able to say with any certainty how many people were on board the Norman Atlantic when it burst into flames.

Two Albanian seamen who took part in the rescue operation for the Norman Atlantic ferry have died from injuries incurred in an accident, the Italian navy said today.

The death toll in the Greek ferry fire has risen to eight and rescue workers are investigating if more people are still missing, Italian authorities said today.

Hundreds of people were evacuated and two more bodies recovered today from the Greek ferry fire, bringing the total death toll to seven, the Italian coast guard said.
