Three New Zealanders are stranded on board a luxury cruise ship that has run aground in Greenland.
The Ocean Explorer, which is carrying 206 passengers, got stuck in Northeast Greenland National Park's remote Alpefjord earlier this week.
The Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade (MFAT) said the three passengers from New Zealand had not requested assistance.
It said as far as it knew, they were all safe and well.
An attempt to refloat the cruise ship by towing it with a large fishing trawler at high tide was not successful.
A Danish navy patrol vessel is expected to arrive at the scene tomorrow to make another attempt to free the ship.
