While en route from Malaga to Fos, the vessel rescued five individuals with the coordination of MRCC Valencia. The incident occurred near Cabo de la Nao between 20:25 and 21:35. Survivors reported that a total of 11 individuals had been sailing from Algiers to Alicante when their boat tragically sank.
In total, eight people were rescued, with five saved by Neptune Ethos and three by the coastguard.

We commend our crew for their exemplary conduct and heartfelt dedication to protecting those in distress. Our thoughts are with the remaining three individuals, and we hope for their safety.
