115 people rescued from blazing tour boat
On Aug 13, 2026, at 11.10 a.m. a fire broke out in the kitchen area of the 'İmparator Atila' off Katrancı Island in Fethiye, Muğla province. The Coast Guard vessel TCSG 65' and the four Coast Guard boats 'TCSG 27', 'TCSG 911', 'KB 82' and 'KB 15' as well as the Coast Guard diving team DEGAK-22 were immediately dispatched to the scene. Coast Guard units determined that many people on board the burning catamaran had jumped into the sea to escape the fire, and rescue operations were immediately initiated. As a result of the rescue operations, a total of 115 people, consisting of 103 passengers, eight animators, and four crew members, were taken to Katrancı Island and transferred to the Karagözler Coast Guard Pier. 11 people were hospitalised with smoke inhalation. As a precaution, several children were also examined by paramedics. The lifeboats 'Kiyem 5' and 'KEGM 15' intervened and extinguished the fire on the ship, which was, however, gutted. Cooling operations were ongoing, and the developments were being followed by the Fethiye Port Authority, and an administrative investigation has been initiated.
