Earlier, trawler QNg 98358TS, captained by Huynh Van Coi from Duc Pho district, Quang Ngai province, ran into trouble while fishing in Binh Thuan's waters. The boat later ran out of fuel and went drifting at sea.
At the same time, two fishermen on board were injured due to strong winds and rough sea.
After receiving the information, the Binh Thuan provincial Border Guard Command, in association with ship CSB 4039 of Naval Region 4 near the scene, approached and took the boat ashore and handed over it to the Border Guard Station of Phu Quy Port of the Binh Thuan provincial Border Guard Command.
The fishermen are currently recovering at the border guard station.
