Summary of the Case: On Saturday the 28th of April, at 02.24am, the Alarm Phone shift team was alerted by a contact person to a group of 40 travellers, forwarding us their phone number and a position close to Izmir. Shortly after the contact person informed us, that the travellers were no longer at sea, but stuck at a rocky part of the beach, unable to move. At 3.00am our shift team managed to reach the travellers, who confirmed that they needed help to leave the beach.
