Quang Ngai fishing boat runs aground on Ly Son island waters

On the morning of July 21, information from the Sa Ky Port Border Guard Station ( Quang Ngai Border Guard), at about 2:30 a.m. on July 21, received information that fishing boat QNg-92096 TS ran aground, about 3-4 nautical miles southeast of Ly Son Island.

Immediately after receiving the information, the Sa Ky Port Border Guard Station proactively contacted the captain to grasp the situation of the incident, and mobilized the fishing boat QNg-96627 TS of Mr. Tran Bien (52 years old, residing in Ly Son special zone) to move to the scene to support the rescue. However, due to the large waves in the sea area and strong southerly winds, the rescue vehicle has not yet been able to approach the distressed vessel.

The stranded fishing boat is 18.7m long, 430 CV, departed from Tinh Ky port, Quang Ngai province on July 2, with 4 crew members on board, registered for trawling in the Hoang Sa sea area.
