After the 'Aroyat' was towed to Giresun waters by a tug of the Giresun Port Operations and searched after having moored. While the body of the missing Turkish engineer Arkan Nika was recovered, the 2nd engineer Erkan Nika remained missing. Upon his family's application, the port authorities in the Novorossiysk region, the Coastguard, health institutions, and SAR units had also conducted a fruitless search operation at sea after the attack. The last AIS signal of the ship originated from Sep 24 near Sinop, bound from Poti to Novorossiysk, before it was targeted by three drones, which set the accomodation block and the bridge on fire on Sep 27. The wreck was towed by the 'Eren Enerji IV' (IMO: 1037270), assisted by tugs of the General Directorate of Coastal Safety to the dismantling facilities in Aliağa on Oct 30, after the necessary talks had been finished, and was beached on Nov 5 for recycling.
