General cargo vessel ANASTASIA ran aground at around 0800 LT July 3 on eastern coast of small island of Stroggili, near eastern tip of Euboea island, Greece, Aegean sea. Vessel departed from Psachna port, Euboea, bound for Thessaloniki. Reportedly there’s a breach in hull, maybe more than one. Vessel’s in ballast. 


Judging from AIS track, watch on bridge was either sleeping or absent – vessel sailed straight on the island. On a photo grounded ANASTASIA. More photos http://www.newsbeast.gr/greece/arthro/2295545/fotografies-apo-to-plio-pou-karfothike-sti-strongili
