ISTANBUL - A 150-meter ship sailing from Bulgaria to İzmit beached itself yesterday in the waterfront garden of a historic residence rented by actress Oya Başar in Yeniköy.
The Ro-Ro ship, flying a St. Vincent flag, launched into the residence owned by Safiye Aksoy, after hitting the jetties that were placed in front of the house. Başar and her daughter were in the house during the accident. "We were so scared. We escaped outside," Başar told the Anatolia news agency. Rescue boats were sent out to transfer the crew onto the shore after the accident. Rescue teams are currently carrying out extensive work and large ships on the Bosphorus have been banned from crossing the area.
