A Vietnamese ship rescued 10 Indonesians sailors whose vessel apparently had an accident and drifted out to sea.
The incident occurred on August 11 morning. Soon after, an SOS signal was received by the HCM City Coastal Radio Station System. The vessel able to come to the rescue was the FS Glory, operated by Vien Dong Shipping.
The ship had been entering Malaysian waters when they spotted people adrift in the ocean and calling for help. The Vietnamese ship came to their aid immediately.
As of 11:50 am, they had saved 10 Indonesian nationals. The conditions of the Indonesian sailors, however, is not clear, with many still complaining of weakness. The area in which they were sailing is known for strong winds.
The FS Glory is currently being taken back to Indonesia, and its sailors repatriated.
