Presenting an operation that culminated in the seizure of the Tanzania-flagged freighter "Andromeda" and its cargo of explosives, Greek coast guard officers on Wednesday said the ship had been a "moving bomb that could have had unforeseeable repercussions on people and the marine environment."

The Hellenic vessel "Salamis" that is currently transporting 186 individuals from Tripoli to Piraeus, is scheduled to arrive at the port early today, according to the Defense Ministry.

Today, Defense Minister Dimitris Avramopoulos praised the Hellenic Navy staff who worked on the Libyan mission "AGHINOR", aboard the "Salamis", as reported by ANA-MPA.
