Summary of the case: On Friday the 9th of June 2023, the Alarm Phone shift team was alerted by a relative about a group of 50 travellers, including 11 women, in distress in the Atlantic Ocean. The travellers had left from Tan Tan in the early hours of the morning of 8th of June. The relative sent us their last known position from around midnight and their phone number. We were not able to reach the boat. We immediately relayed all the information we had to the Spanish search and rescue organisation Salvamento Maritimo.
