A massive fire broke out on a cruise ship docked off the coast of Greece on Friday afternoon.
Plumes of smoke were seen billowing out of the MSC Lirica, which has been moored at a Corfu port since January, according to the Greek news site Kathimerini.
No injuries have been reported following the fire.
Fifty-one crew members were aboard the 2,300 capacity vessel when the fire started, but no one was injured, MSC Cruises told the Post.
The fire started in one of the ship’s fiberglass lifeboats, and a preliminary investigation found the damage was contained to the starboard side of the ship, MSC said.
Footage shows two lifeboats attached to the ship’s starboard side had caught on fire, before firefighting vessels could respond to the inferno.
