Summary
On Tuesday the 3rd of August 2021 in the afternoon, the Alarm Phone shift team was alerted by relatives to three travellers in distress in the Alboran Sea. The three travellers had left Al Hoceima eight hours earlier on jet ski, and were heading towards Malaga. The relatives had lost contact to the travellers, and it was not possible for our shift team to establish a direct connection. At 16.45 CEST we alerted the Spanish search and rescue organisation to the distress of the travellers, passing on all information we had.
Some hours later we learned from the relatives that the travellers had been rescued and brought to Malaga.
