Tension in Piraeus: Passengers Block Ferry Departure to Cyclades

Tension arose in the port of Piraeus when over 100 passengers blocked the departure of a ferry bound for the Cyclades. The passengers, who had been unable to travel the previous day due to a sailing ban, protested upon being informed that they could not change their tickets.

The protesters gathered on the ferry's ramp, preventing its departure. The Coast Guard arrived at the scene, and after negotiations, the passengers dispersed, and the ship departed for the Cyclades with a delay at 7.45.

The passengers are denouncing the ferry company, claiming they had received notification via announcement and SMS that they could travel normally without changing tickets.
