A Maltese climber was rescued this morning after he found himself stranded on the face of a cliff at Mgarr ix-Xini.
It was the climber himself who contacted the authorities for assistance.
Emergency Response and Rescue Corps personnel were on site to help but initially the man could not be located.
A drone was later used for the man to be found, and an AFM helicopter was despatched to lift the man to safety.
