Maritime Rescue has located three immigrants who were in a pneumatic boat near the coast of Alegranza, from where they are being transferred to the commercial dock of Arrecife.

According to the EFE agency, the Guardamar Calíope vessel had gone out in search of them, having knowledge that they were sailing about 74 kilometers northeast of this islet.

The notice was given by an NGO and then the vessel was spotted by a ship, which has remained in the area until the arrival of the guardamar.

The Sasemar 101 plane was also looking for another vessel that, according to the Civil Guard, would have left Tan-tan (Morocco) in the direction of the Canary Islands.
