Earlier this afternoon, the Malta Rescue Coordination Centre said it coordinated the rescue of a crew member who was onboard a general cargo vessel approximately 14 nautical miles off Malta after sustaining severe injuries.
An air asset from the Armed Forces of Malta was deployed to the area to facilitate the rescue operation.
The AFM said the casualty was safely transported to Malta and handed over to Mater Dei Hospital’s medical team for further treatment.
