Distressed trawler saved at sea

Trawler towed ashore

Earlier, at 9:00 on February 21, due to harsh weather conditions, the squid fishing boat, captained by 66-year-old Phan Thi Anh Loan (from Lai Son commune, Kien Hai district, Kien Giang), went adrift and was stranded.

Fortunately, there were no people on the boat at that time.

Ship BP28-1-62 of Squadron A21, Flotilla 26 found the distressed trawler while patrolling and carrying out activities relating to COVID-19 prevention and control in Kien Giang waters and immediately carried out appropriate measures to rescue the distressed trawler.

After four hours, the troops successfully saved the trawler and safely towed it ashore.
