Thursday, 16 September 20103 min read

British holidaymakers are believed to be among 25 injured when a catamaran crashed into a dock on the Greek island of Kos.

Five of the passengers are believed to be seriously hurt and a further 20 sustained minor injuries. None of the injuries are believed to be life threatening, but authorities say some of the passengers may have sustained broken bones.

There were more than 200 passengers onboard the catamaran, most of them British, when it hit the dock.

It had travelled from the Turkish resort of Didim, which is not far from Kos. Trips between the two ports take place twice a week during the summer.
