On Thursday, 4th of November 2021, and within the framework of the implementation of the Cyprus-Greece-Egypt Trilateral Military Cooperation, a Trilateral table-top SAR exercise was conducted at the JRCC Larnaca, in order to practice and evaluate the agreed procedures that are to be implemented in case of an emergency close to the joint borders of the Search and Rescue Regions of the 3 states, and which requires the cooperation of the JRCCs of Larnaca, Cairo and Piraeus.
The exercise is the first SAR activity that takes place on the trilateral level, and proves the efforts that the three states make towards regional cooperation and improving the safety of mariners in the Eastern Mediterranean.
