The rescue took place at around 1625CET in the sea just off the Chalet on the Sliema Front's promenade.
An Alouette rescue-helicopter was already alerted and ready to fly to the scene, but the Melita-1 rescue-launch that arrived on site within 8 minutes of the initial alert succesfully recovered the two Russian children, along with two other men who had attempted to rescue them as well.
