A person has been missing at sea for nine long hours now, and the situation has sparked a major search effort. This all began when the individual fell off a vessel that was a staggering 40 miles away from land. As soon as HM Coastguard received a distress alert at 8:15 am this morning from the vessel, which was located off the coast of Fraserburgh, Aberdeenshire, they sprung into action.
Unfortunately, despite the valiant efforts of the search teams, the person has yet to be found by 3:10 pm this afternoon. A spokesperson for HM Coastguard shared, "An HM Coastguard rescue helicopter, a fixed-wing Coastguard aircraft, nearby vessels, and RNLI Fraserburgh and Peterhead lifeboats have all been called upon to aid in the search for the person who fell overboard from the vessel in the vast waters of the North Sea."
In addition to these resources, an oil and gas industry rescue helicopter from Aberdeen has also joined in to offer support. As the spokesperson further explained, "The alarm was raised at approximately 8:15 am this morning, after HM Coastguard received a distress alert from the vessel, which was located about 35 nautical miles north-east of Fraserburgh."
The search is still ongoing at this time, and everyone involved is tirelessly working towards finding the missing person. The Coastguard has not given up hope and remains determined to bring the individual back to safety.
