Salvaging a sunken fishing boat in the waters off Quỳnh Lưu.

(Baonghean.vn) - On the afternoon of March 10th, the People's Committee of Dien Bich commune, Dien Chau district (Nghe An province) announced that they had successfully salvaged a fishing boat that sank near Lach Quen port in the Quynh Luu sea area.

Accordingly, after several days at sea fishing, the fishing vessel numbered NA90280, owned by Mr. Dang Van Son (born in 1971), residing in Dien Bich commune, Dien Chau district, along with 4 crew members, was on its way back to shore.

At approximately 3 PM on March 9th, as the boat was approaching Lach Quen port (Quynh Luu, Nghe An), it suddenly tilted, seawater flooded in, and it began to sink. At that moment, Mr. Son shouted for help from nearby boats, and all five people on board were safely brought ashore.

The ship has been salvaged.

Upon receiving the report, the authorities of Quynh Luu district, in coordination with Dien Bich commune and local fishermen, organized the salvage operation to bring the ship ashore. By 10:30 this morning (March 10th), the ship had been successfully salvaged.

Mr. Nguyen Viet Man, Chairman of the People's Committee of Dien Bich commune, said: "Currently, the ship has been successfully salvaged and brought ashore. Because the ship sank near the shore, there were no casualties, and property damage has not yet been assessed. We are currently working with the fishermen to urgently address the consequences so that they can feel secure in continuing their fishing activities."
