A dramatic rescue operation was carried out off the coast of Wied iż-Żurrieq, Malta, after two kayakers got into difficulty. The kayakers, who were paddling in the area, were spotted by an AFM (Armed Forces of Malta) patrol boat crew. Upon assessing the situation, the AFM personnel quickly sprang into action, providing the kayakers with life jackets and keeping them safe until further assistance arrived.
The rescue effort was a testament to the AFM’s swift response and dedication to ensuring the safety of those in distress at sea. The kayakers were eventually escorted back to shore, where they were met by their relieved families and friends. This incident serves as a reminder of the importance of prioritizing safety when engaging in water activities and the critical role that rescue services play in preventing accidents from becoming tragedies.
