Cruise ship captain blames currents for sinking
The captain of the sunken Sea Diamond cruise ship blamed currents off a Greek island for last week’s accident, state-run television reported today.
Two French tourists have been missing since Thursday when the ship struck rocks and eventually sank off the holiday island of Santorini. All the other people on board – 1,154 passengers and 391 crew, according to operator Louis Cruise Lines - were rescued.
