Whereas initial information had said that there were 18 people on board the dinghy when it overturned, that number has now been revised to at least 19.
A full-scale search and rescue operation was mounted after the capsized dinghy was discovered in waters north of Oinousses, initially by the passenger ship "Nissos Rhodos" that was sailing in the area and subsequently with the participation of Greek coast guard vessels, patrol boats and an aircraft supply by the European border agency Frontex and a Hellenic Air Force helicopter.
