PS Seen the doings at Pireus?

Oops! Well, no one died and she's still afloat, so better than the last four naval vessel vs cruise ship/tanker incidents.

(Venezuelan PC Naiguata sank after deliberately ramming ice-hardened cruise-ship RCGS Resolute in international waters, Apr 2020. No casualties.

HNoMS Helge Ingstad sank after collision with tanker in Norwegian waters. Nov 2018. 7 injured

USS John S McCain, collided with tanker off Singapore, Aug 2017, 10 dead.

USS Fitzgerald, collided with tanker off Japan, Jun 2017. 7 dead)
