Incredible images have emerged of a baby being rescued from the open ocean after she floated a kilometre out to sea when her parents forgot they left her in the water.
The Ilgın family went to the public beach in the town of Küçükkuyu on Friday, where they placed 10 month old Melda on a flotation device and left her in the water nearby.
However, between strong northern winds and the family’s lack of attention, the young girl quickly began floating off into the open sea in the direction of the Greek island of Lesbos.
Noticing too late, beachgoers attempted to save the infant but were unsuccessful.
The Turkish Coast Guard was immediately notified of the incident and a
boat was dispatched to the scene. Reaching the girl at a distance of one
kilometer out from the shore, Coast Guard personnel leapt into the
water to rescue the young Melda.The girl was then brought back to the
beach and reunited with her ecstatic family.
