Due to bad weather, 50 Albanian and foreign tourists, including children, got stranded on the island of Sazan after their trip on a small vessel.

Among the tourists were also a group of foreign journalists from different news agencies. Journalists sought help from the Armed Forces since the high waves hindered their movement for several hours.
The Navy Fleet Ship "Illyria" came to their aid and transported the tourists to the Vlora Port.
