A 19-year-old man was hospitalized after suffering severe injuries in a jet ski accident in Rethymno, Crete.

Local port authorities ordered a halt to all maritime activity in the specific area so that the circumstances of the accident could be thoroughly investigated, given that a group of people with four jet skis were present.

Doctors are trying to stabilize the man, who suffered injuries to vital organs and bleeding in his lungs. [AMNA]
