The cargo ship “Raptor” sank off the Greek island of Lesbos amid stormy seas, leaving 13 crew members missing. The ship, en route from Alexandria, Egypt, to Istanbul with 6,000 tons of salt, reported a mechanical problem before sending a distress signal and disappearing. The crew comprised eight Egyptians, four Indians, and two Syrians. One Egyptian crew member has been rescued. Search and rescue operations involve eight merchant ships, two helicopters, and a Greek Navy frigate, but rough seas are complicating efforts. The national weather service reported northwesterly winds exceeding 80 kph (50 mph) in the area.
