The Rescue Coordination Center receives information about boats and vessels movements as well as SOS requests in the Maltese waters and the SAR (Search and Rescue) waters. Malta's competence of coordination of the SAR waters is 25,000 square nautical miles, which also includes the Italian island of Lampedusa.
