One crew member of the "Horizon" has died and three more had to be hospitalized after an accident near the country's Adriatic coast. Another man was hospitalized at the general hospital in Meljine in life-threatening condition after a suspected poisoning late on June 5, 2015, apparently by fuel fumes. An investigation was underway. The affected sailors were from Sri Lanka, Egypt and India. The ship was heading to a nearby Montenegrin shipyard for repairs.

Red Cross ship Ionis reunites Libyan families

More than 300 people, including 66 captured rebel fighters released by the Libyan government, have arrived in the opposition stronghold of Benghazi by boat from Tripoli, the country's capital, Al Jazeera reports. The Ionis vessel, chartered by the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), docked in the eastern port city amid chaotic scenes on Friday afternoon after a 22-hour journey. Accompanied by the blaring din of ship horns, the assembled crowd on the quayside chanted anti-regime slogans while trying to find loved ones and associates. "It is a joyful experience, with many people reunited with family members," said Al Jazeera's Zeina Khodr. "These civilians have been cut off from their relatives for four months now, unable to cross frontlines because of the fighting," said Paul Castella, head of the ICRC delegation in Tripoli.
