Summary of the case: On Friday the 22nd of July 2022, the Alarm Phone shift team was alerted by a relative to a group of 28 travellers, including two women and three minors, in distress in the Alboran Sea. The travellers had left from around Nador on a black rubber boat in the early hours of the morning. We were not able to establish direct contact to the boat, but relayed all the information we had to the Spanish search and rescue organisation Salvamento Maritimo. During the night we continuously attempted to reach the travellers without success. The following morning, the relative confirmed that the travellers had been rescued by Salvamento Maritimo and brought to Almeria.
