Fortunately, a third team managed to find them manually. Mr. Noor assured that all 18 individuals on the boat were now safe.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cBy the time we found them, it was 4am and they had left the main channel of the river for another route where they docked,\u201d<\/em> he said.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cWe didn\u2019t know where we were, the river has burst its banks and all the villages are flooded, so any route looks like a shortcut and that\u2019s where we went wrong,\u201d<\/em> Galole MP said.<\/p>\n<p>The MP mentioned that returning to the main route was not an option due to the dwindling fuel and associated risks. Nevertheless, he expressed gratitude for the collaborative efforts of the Ministry of Defence, the Navy, and the Kenya Red Cross, which ensured their safe return to the base.<\/p>\n<p><em>\u201cIt is not easy to survive the Tana River at this time but I am confident that our government is prepared for such incidents based on the efforts we have witnessed,\u201d<\/em> said Said Buya Hiribae.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Garsen Member of Parliament Ali Wario (in pink T-shirt) and his counterparts during a rescue mission in the River Tana on December 2, 2023.
