Shocking moment baby rescued after floating nearly a mile out to sea in rubber ring in Tunisia

A one-year-old baby has been rescued after floating nearly a mile out to sea off Tunisia in a rubber ring while her parents were ’distracted’. The incident happened just after 5p.m. on Saturday afternoon off a beach in Kelibia, on the country’s north east coast, local media reported. Video shows the moment of the rescue after Civil Protection officers were called to save the child, who was unharmed after her ordeal. Government sources told radio station Shems FM that the girl had likely been blown out to sea by strong winds. Her parents are thought to have been distracted at the time. In the footage, taken from a jet ski, the little girl, sitting in a pink inflatable ring, is being pulled towards the vehicle by a lifeguard. The camera pans up to show the cost in the distance, revealing just how far the infant had drifted out. Original Article: Original Video:
