SAR boat recovered overturned boat with explosive devices
On April 3, 2024, the Romanian Agency for Saving Life at Sea (ARSVOM) was alerted by the MRCC regarding an overturned boat in the area of Tuzla, about 35 kilometers from the shore. The 'Artemis' was tasked to carry out SAR operations. At 5:45 p.m. the 'Artemis' arrived at the indicated position and began searching the sector as instructed by the MRCC. As a result of the searches, no person was found. The vessel was towed by the'Artemi' to the Port of Constanța on April 4. Following investigations, the Romanian Information Service (SRI) antiterrorism troops allegedly found explosive devices on board. Additionally, the vessel is equipped with radars and data transmission systems. There was a hypothesis that the rapid intervention boat belonged to the Ukrainian navy. Specialists were conducting investigations to determine the origin of the vessel and the causes that led to its overturning.
