17 survivors of migrant boat rescued, 15 perished
On Nov 8, 2026, the crew of the 'CMA CGM Sahara', enroute from Marsaxlokk to Limassol, rescued 17 migrants—including a child—from a precarious boat in the open sea, near the island of Crete, amidst extremely difficult weather conditions. Other occupants of the boat had perished. The crew immediately launched a rescue operation, providing humanitarian aid to the survivors, including food, water, and means to stay warm. According to the survivors, the boat had been carrying 32 people; who were attempting to reach Greece. However, severe weather, heavy rain, and a lack of water turned the journey into a humanitarian tragedy. As the conditions on board deteriorated, the person steering the boat and another individual took their own lives. Subsequently, a vessel belonging to the Greek authorities—tasked with rescue operations and managing irregular migration—arrived and took charge of the survivors to complete the necessary procedures.
CMA CGM doubles capacity on West Coast Feeder service via Liverpool
CMA CGM has increased the capacity on its West Coast Feeder service via Liverpool to 2200 TEU from 900 TEU. M.V. Nicolas Delmas began calling at the port in April. The service begins in Antwerp and also calls at Greenock, Belfast, Dublin and Le Havre.Patrick Walters, Group Commercial Director at Peel Ports, said: “This is yet another encouraging step as we build up to the opening of Liverpool2 in the summer. The message about the cost, congestion and carbon emission benefits to cargo owners of shipping via Liverpool is really taking hold and the lines are responding to the market opportunity. While we are still having positive discussions about deep-sea services calling at Liverpool2 with a number of carriers, it is really helpful to see increases in feeder services and vessel capacity as a means of underlining the case for getting closer to market via Liverpool.”
