Rescuers pulled three more crew members and a security guard alive from the Red Sea on Thursday, maritime security sources say, a day after Houthi rebels sank the Greek ship Eternity C and said they were holding some of the crew still missing.

This brings the total number of those rescued so far to 10, including eight Filipino crew members, one Indian and one Greek security guard. The people found today spent more than 48 hours in the water. Another 11 people are still missing.

“This fills us with more courage to continue to search for those missing, as the Greek vessel operator requested, and shows that our search plan was correct,” says Nikos Georgopoulos, an official at the Greece-based maritime risk firm Diaplous.
