CAIRO, Feb. 13 (Xinhua) -- U.S. Navy aircraft carrier "Harry Truman" collided with a merchant vessel in the Mediterranean Sea near Egypt, with no injuries recorded, Egypt's Al-Qahera News TV channel said Thursday, citing the U.S. military.
The report said the U.S. carrier collided with the ship Besiktas-M late Wednesday night while operating in the Mediterranean Sea near Egypt.
It added the carrier is in a "safe and stable condition" as its propulsion engines are unaffected, and no flooding was reported. ■
