Boat fire at a shipyard in Limassol
On Tuesday, a fire broke out on a boat located at a shipyard in Limassol. The fire department received the call at 12:03 and dispatched two fire engines from the Agios Ioannis 'Lochias Vasilis Krokou' fire station. The fire was triggered by repair and welding work being performed on the vessel. The boat's internal fire suppression system was activated automatically during the incident. Two workers who were inside the boat at the time were safely evacuated, and no injuries were reported. The fire and resulting heat caused damage to the vessel's electrical panel. Authorities are currently documenting the exact cause and extent of the damage. While some sources mentioned Wednesday as the day of the event, the majority of reports, including official fire department statements, confirm the incident occurred on Tuesday.
