ĐÀ NẴNG — Four crewmembers of a boat that sank in the sea off central Đà Nẵng City were rescued on Tuesday, according to Regional Maritime Search and Rescue Coordination Centre No II.
The boat, coded ĐNa 90765 TS, sank at some 8pm on Monday while going offshore for fishing.
The four boatmen clinked to a coracle to survive, but their health began to deteriorate after spending several hours in the sea without food and water.
However, another boat, coded ĐNa 90279 TS, found the victims and rescued them offshore.
The Việt Nam Maritime Search and Rescue Coordination Centre rescued the crewmembers onshore on Tuesday evening.
They are undergoing treatment. — VNS
