A dinghy en route to Kaafu Atoll Guraidhoo capsized last night near Zamaani Island Resort, prompting a swift rescue operation by police and nearby resorts.
According to a Police Media Official, the vessel was carrying seventeen expatriates at the time of the incident. All individuals on board were successfully rescued.
Three passengers managed to swim ashore to Zamaani Island, while the remaining were rescued with the assistance of speedboats from Kaafu Atoll Police and nearby resorts.
Earlier this week, MNDF advised the public to avoid non-essential sea travel due to poor weather. Those who must travel were urged to monitor forecasts and avoid night journeys.
