The United States Navy’s nuclear-powered aircraft carrier USS Gerald R. Ford, described as the world’s largest and most advanced, is en route to Greece for repairs following damage caused by a recent fire. A US official confirmed the information to CBS News, noting that the fire began in a laundry room and injured two sailors who have since received medical treatment.

According to Reuters, citing two US officials, the carrier is currently in the Red Sea and will be taken to Souda Bay port on the Greek island of Crete for maintenance. The BBC reported that it took more than 30 hours to bring the fire under control after it broke out in the ship’s laundry section, leaving at least two sailors injured.

The incident has temporarily sidelined one of the US Navy’s most powerful vessels as it undergoes necessary repairs in Greece.
