A crew member opf the 'Ville de Bordeaux' suffered a heart attack and needed to be medevaced off the tip of Penmarc’h (Finistère) in the morning of Aug 1, 2021. The ship was underway from Mobile to Montoir de Bretagne carrying Airbus parts. The CROSS Etel was notified of the emergency and deployed a Cayman helicopter of the French Navy. As the ship was 220 nautical miles iff the coast, a Falcon 50 aircraft took off from the base in Lanveoc to ensure communication between the helicopter and the ship and guided the latter to a defined point to allow the patient to be picked up. He was brought back shore at 11:44 a.m. and was transported to the Brest hospital center.

OCEAN VIKING
During several rescue missions both the "Ocean Viking" and the "Sea-Watch-3" took on board altogether more than 700 distressed migrants, among them children, youth and pregnant women, since Aug 30. Also the yacht "Nadir" of the NGO ResQship was involved in the night of Aug 31 after a large wooden boat with 400 people on board was flooded off the Tunisian coast. Actually 449 castaways were aboard the "Ocean Viking", another 220 people aboard the "Sea-Watch 3", which requested a safe port. There were no medical emergencies, but two adults were suffering from extreme exhaustion. Neither the ship of SOS Méditerranée nor the one of Sea-Watch have found injured people nor were there fatalities, though it was unsure whether everyone was found in the darkness. Already on July 30 and in the run 0f July 31 the "Ocean Viking" rescued almost 200 boat people, while the "Sea-Watch 3" rescued about 90 castaways in two missions.

GOLDEN RAY
Pollution response teams mitigated a significant discharge of oil from the 'Golden Ray' on Aug 31 . Multiple mitigation strategies are deployed inside and outside the Environmental Protection Barrier (EPB). Local health officials urge beach-goers to be vigilant. During weight-shedding operations on Section Six of the wreck, a discharge of oil occurred inside the EPB. Responders quickly deployed multiple pre-staged pollution mitigation assets such as Current Busters, oil skimmers and barrier and sorbent boom both inside and outside of the EPB. Aided by constant helicopter aerial observation, responders identified and adjusted on-water containment vessels to oil entraining underneath the EPB as it traveled westward on a flooding tide. As the tide ebbed, oil entrained under the barrier into the shipping channel alongside the south end of St. Simons Island passing the St. Simons Island fishing pier. Shoreline teams were actively surveying beaches along St. Simons Island and Jekyll Island and clean-up teams are standing by to quickly respond to any affected areas. If you encounter residual oil on the shoreline or in the water, please call the National Response Center hotline at (800) 424-8802.
