Two Syrian migrants, Bassam and Raad, survived more than 60 hours in freezing waters without food or water. 7 others died and 12 remain missing after their boat sank off the coast of Cyprus in March.

The men had departed from the shores of Lebanon on a small fiberglass boat to cross 160km westward to Cyprus. CIReN shares their harrowing story and what Bassam and Raad endured as they watched relatives and friends disappear in the waves as they waited in vain to be rescued.

Based on survivor testimony, interviews, official statements and tracking data, CIReN also examines the rescue response and the aftermath for two men now struggling with the asylum process.

The boat began taking on water after nightfall as waves grew. A swell overwhelmed the vessel and all 21 men ended up in the sea.

Survivors say they saw boats pass by and a helicopter overhead, but rescuers found them only after 3 days and nights in the cold waters.

Families contacted @alarmphone, which shared distress coordinates with Cypriot authorities. Officials said the alert was unconfirmed but that an SaR operation was dispatched in response. JRCC Larnaca - ΚΣΕΔ Λάρνακας

Tracking data reviewed by reporters shows rescue assets operating in nearby areas, but not at the NGO's exact coordinates until several hours later.

When survivors were finally found days later, officials described it as "random and coincidental".

Both survivors remain in Cyprus with pending asylum claims. One has housing through relatives. The other has no permanent accommodation and sometimes sleeps outside.

Turkish Cypriot leader Tufan Erhürman recently claimed that the lack of direct flights to the northern part of Cyprus is "exaggerated," arguing that "many island nations" also lack direct connections. But facts tell a different story.

Kıbrıslı Türk lider Tufan Erhürman bir süre önce, kuzey Kıbrıs'a doğrudan uçuşların olmaması konusunun "abartıldığını" söyledi ve "birçok ada ülkesine" doğrudan bağlantının olmadığını öne sürdü. Ancak veriler farklı bir gerçeği ortaya koyuyor.
