A video showing pilots and crew who were on the platform at the time jumping into the sea without any hesitation to rescue the people on board a TMA seaplane after its pontoon broke and the aircraft began to sink has gone viral on social media today.

The video, posted on Facebook by a member of the public, shows uniformed pilots and crew on the aerodrome platform of the seaplane terminal immediately jumping into the sea and swimming toward the aircraft as it began to sink.

According to what Mauroof Mohamed, who posted the video, wrote, seeing the uniformed crew jump into the sea to save the passengers and members of their own team brought tears to his eyes and filled his heart. He expressed in the post that he is very proud of them.

"In that terrifying moment, they had no thought for themselves. Upon seeing people in need of help, they jumped into the sea without hesitation," Maaroof said.

"Every person who worked to save them is someone's child. A mother or a father. A life partner. Or a friend. The help provided at the most critical moment will remain engraved in our hearts."

In the accident that occurred yesterday when a TMA seaplane's pontoon broke, a crew member was injured and is still being treated on a ventilator.

The person injured in the incident yesterday afternoon was a 20-year-old man. Due to the seriousness of the young man's condition when he was brought to the hospital, treatment was initiated directly in the ICU. It has been learned that he was injured after getting crushed/pinned between the seaplane and the dock.

TMA had told the media that the passengers and crew on board the seaplane at the time of the incident were rescued. Although it stated that the cause of the incident would be investigated and details publicized, the information TMA shared with the media did not mention that anyone was injured in the incident.

As seen in photos and videos shared by some people on social media, some water entered the aircraft after the seaplane's pontoon broke and it tilted.

Relevant authorities are investigating this incident.
