Summary of the case: On Tuesday the 31st of May 2022, the Alarm Phone shift team was alerted by a relative to a group of 44 travellers, including 10 women and three babies, in distress in the Atlantic Sea. The travellers had left from Boujdour at around midnight, heading towards the Canary Islands. We were not able to reach the travellers and the relative told us that they had lost contact to the boat as well.
