Nine people rescued from flooded cayuco - 51 missing
The bulk carrier 'Beskidy' reported a semi-submerged cayuco 60 nautical miles south of El Hierro on April 28. The CCS Tenerife of Salvamento Marítimo mobilized the 'Salvamar Adhara', a patrol boat of the Guardia Civil and the SAR helicopter Helimer 206, to the scene. The vessel, measuring between 15 to 20 metres in length, was spotted by the 'Beskidy', while it was en route from Itaqui to Cartagena. The helicopter flew nine survivors to El Hierro to receive initial medical assistance. Meanwhile, the 'Salvamar Adhara' was instructed to continue sailing towards the location of the boat to verify that there were no remaining victims onboard, as indicated by reports from the Helimer rescuers. The survivors told the helicopter crew and medical personnel that they had set sail nine days ago with 60 people on board, bound for the Canary Islands, capsized two days ago, and they are the only ones who managed to turn the boat back over and climb aboard again, despite it being partially submerged. The survivors, for whom no further details have been disclosed yet, except that they were from sub-Saharan Africa, were being attended to by healthcare professionals and Red Cross personnel at the El Hierro airport. Ambulances have transported three of them to the island’s hospital. Report with photo: https://twitter.com/salvamentogob/status/1784911195557826861
