The cause of the collision is not currently known but those onboard say the weather conditions were poor before the crash.
A P&O cruise ship carrying hundreds of UK passengers has crashed into another vessel off the coast of Palma in Mallorca. The cause of the collision is not currently known but those onboard say strong winds and bad weather conditions may have played a part in the ships bumping into each other.
A Welsh woman, who is on the ship with her partner and two children, said: "We have now been told we're allowed to leave our cabins but we can't do anything on the ship and all the crew are in their life jackets and doing all of their emergency things. "The captain said: 'Everyone to their muster stations, this is not a drill.' Lots of people were running around looking panicked. Then they came around again and said everyone needs to get back to their cabins. We're still none the wiser. I can't see how they'll be able to sail it again after this."
