Turkey searches for cargo ship with 10 crew after collision south of Istanbul

Turkish authorities launched a search after losing contact with a cargo ship and its 10 crew following a collision in the Sea of Marmara.

Turkey's coastguard began a search-and-rescue operation after two Turkish-flagged commercial vessels collided about 32 kilometres south of Silivri early Wednesday.

The Istanbul governor's office said contact was lost with the Tugberk Imamoglu and its 10 crew members, while the other vessel, the Alsu, appeared undamaged.
