At about 11 pm on May 18, a fire occurred in the yard area of Thang Loi port, Bac Trach commune, Quang Tri province, causing damage to 3 fishing boats anchored for repair.
Immediately after receiving the news, the Bac Trach commune government mobilized police, military, border guard, and mobile militia forces in coordination with the Fire and Rescue Police Department of Bac Quang Tri area to participate in firefighting.
Because the fishing boats were in the process of repair, anchored close to each other and had many flammable materials, the fire quickly broke out. Functional forces urgently deployed firefighting plans and prevented the fire from spreading to nearby vehicles.
By about 0:30 on May 19, the fire was basically controlled and completely extinguished.
Currently, functional forces are continuing to investigate and clarify the case.
