On October 12, information from the Command of Coast Guard Region 3 said that Coast Guard ship 9033 (belonging to Squadron 32) successfully rescued 3 fishermen who were fishing and had a boat sinking accident at sea.
According to initial information, at 8:10 a.m. on October 12, upon receiving information that a fishing boat without a registration number from Khanh Hoa province operating about 1.2 nautical miles north-northwest of Port No. 3 of the Fleet had sunk, Fleet 32 immediately directed Coast Guard ship 9033 to quickly leave the port to conduct rescue operations.
After approaching the location of the distressed boat, officers and soldiers of Coast Guard ship 9033, together with local fishing boats operating nearby, successfully rescued three people: Mr. P.C.D (born in 1974); Mr. N.L.V (born in 1980) and Mr. N.H.M.T (born in 1988). Afterwards, Coast Guard ship 9033 brought all three people and the boat safely back to the port of Squadron 32.
Previously, these people used a boat to leave Hon Khoi port to go fishing at around 7:50 a.m., but encountered a thunderstorm and big waves that capsized the boat and caused the people to fall into the sea.
