Cruise ship and freight ship collide amid storm in Mallorca, Spain.

A cruise ship broke free from moorings and collided with a freight vessel during a storm in Mallorca, Spain.

Passengers on Britannia, a P&O Cruises ship based in Southampton, described "being pushed ashore by tugs whilst confined to our cabins" after the incident, in which a walkway fell away.

A "small number" of people are being cared for onboard after sustaining "minor injuries", P&O said.

It said the ship will stay in Palma to allow for a technical assessment.

The captain earlier told passengers there was "no structural compromise".
