A four-member Polish family was evacuated from an inaccessible part of the coast near Blace, south-east of Ploče, after their inflatable boat capsized. The incident occurred on Monday evening, and the National Rescue Coordination Centre was alerted through the County Emergency Response Centre ŽC112. The Coast Guard of Ploče quickly responded and rescued all members of the family individually due to poor visibility and concerns over worsening weather conditions. No injuries were reported during the rescue operation. The family refused a medical check-up and was later transported to a safe location. The capsized boat, measuring 3.6 meters, was retrieved by the boat’s owner and removed from the shore to prevent any risk to maritime traffic. There was no evidence of marine pollution at the scene.

Bias read (Center): The article provides a factual account of a maritime rescue operation involving a foreign national family. It focuses on the actions taken by the Croatian authorities and does not present any overtly biased language, framing, or emphasis on political issues. The content remains neutral and centered,

A four-member Polish family, including two children, was rescued after their boat capsized near the town of Blace, east of Ploče. The incident occurred on Monday evening when they reported their situation to the National Maritime Rescue Coordination Center via the ŽC112 regional reporting center. Emergency services quickly responded, reaching the stranded individuals on the remote shore. Due to the difficult access and poor visibility, rescuers had to swim to the shore individually to evacuate each member of the family. All were safely brought aboard a rescue vessel by 22:30 and declined medical checks before being transported back to their starting location. Preliminary investigations suggest the capsized boat, registered under Polish flag and measuring 3.6 meters, began taking in water for unknown reasons. The boat owner pulled it ashore where it poses no threat to maritime traffic until removed. No pollution or environmental damage was observed at the scene.

Bias read (Center): The article presents a factual account of a maritime rescue operation without overt ideological framing. While the event involves international elements (Polish nationals), the focus remains on the operational details of the rescue, the conditions, and the outcome. There is no evident partisan slant
