The Strait of Gibraltar was the scene of a humanitarian emergency when an Indian sailor working aboard a Vietnamese tanker suddenly fell ill while the ship was passing through the strait. The incident began when the sailor felt intense pain that he could not bear, prompting him to use the radio communication system to call for immediate help.

Moroccan authorities responded quickly through the Tangier Maritime Fisheries Commission, coordinating an urgent rescue operation. The rescue vessel “Tariq” was sent to the scene to provide the necessary support. Thanks to the efficiency and careful coordination of the crew, the sailor was transferred to the hospital to receive the necessary treatment.

Medical sources confirmed that the sailor’s condition was stable after receiving appropriate health care, while the ship’s crew expressed gratitude for the prompt and professional response shown by the Moroccan authorities.

This incident highlights the importance of constant preparation of maritime rescue teams in the Strait of Gibraltar, one of the most important shipping lanes in the world due to heavy traffic of commercial ships and oil tankers. It also reflects the vital role played by Moroccan authorities in ensuring the security of international shipping lanes and ensuring the safety and security of those crossing.
