Greek and Italian boats rushed to evacuate 290 people on board a ferry that burst into flames near Corfu in the Ionian Sea, reports BBC.
The Euroferry Olympia had left Igoumenitsa in Greece and was heading to the Italian port of Brindisi when fire reportedly broke out on a deck.
The captain asked passengers and crew to leave the ship and video showed the ferry engulfed in flames.
