This is reported by the publication AP news.

As the rescuers note, the ship was discovered at a distance of about 35 km from the shore, after a signal was received to help the Romanian authorities from a commercial ship in the area.

Thus, the Coast Guard sent two vessels to the territory from which the distress signal arrived and escorted the vessel to the Romanian port of Constanta.

Also, the Coast Guard stated that migrants will be identified and, if necessary, they will be provided with medical services. While there is no information on the ship's crew and the nationality of migrants.

As previously reported in URA-Inform, Slovak police in the north of the country detained 78 migrants who were transported in two trucks. According to the ministry, the migrants were from Iraq, Iran and Syria.
