6 crew are still suffering on board . The ITF is working to repatriate them, but the local agent is not collaborating. The Egyptian maritime authorities have been asked to assist the repatriation of the crew. The ITF is providing humanitarian assistance as they have no fuel and therefore no electricity. The owners and local agent are not providing any provisions for the crews basic needs. The ITF has offered legal assistance to the crew.
