  11. Body recovered from River Tawe after major emergency response

    South Wales Police said officers were called to Quay Parade at around 7.50am after reports that a person had entered the water. Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service, the RNLI, Coastguard teams and the Welsh Ambulance Service were all deployed.

    Shortly before 1.30pm, divers located and recovered the man’s body. Formal identification has yet to take place.

    Multi‑agency search

    The incident sparked a major response, with fire crews from Swansea Central, Carmarthen, Swansea West and Morriston stations working alongside police, Coastguard and RNLI teams to search the river and riverbanks.

    The Mumbles RNLI confirmed that both its Inshore Lifeboat (ILB) and All‑Weather Lifeboat (ALB) launched at 8am to assist. The ALB provided safety and search cover at the river mouth, while the ILB supported fire service crews in searching the river itself.

    A Welsh Ambulance Service spokesperson said:

    “We were called today at approximately 7.40am to reports of an incident in the River Tawe, Swansea. We sent one emergency ambulance, one Cymru High Acuity Response Unit, one operations manager and a hazardous area response team to the scene.”

    Police statement

    In a social media update, South Wales Police confirmed:

    “Officers were called to the River Tawe at Quay Parade, Swansea at around 7.50am today following a report of a person having entered the water. Mid and West Wales Fire and Rescue Service, The RNLI and the Coast Guard also attended. Shortly before 1.30pm, divers located a man’s body, which has now been recovered. Formal identification has yet to take place.”

    Ongoing investigation

    Police say enquiries are continuing and further details will be released once formal identification has been completed.

  12. Today I was on duty with the Austrian #Samaritan water rescue team at the local lake. But when there was nothing to do on and around the water there was time for a #QSO as a #SOTA chaser.

    My #Baofeng reached OE/OO-344 which was about 50km away with ease.
