Rescue ship drifting at sea

On the night of August 17, a transport vehicle with registration number KG 4007 TS owned by Mr. Tran Van Nguyen (born in 1982, residing in Group 2, Thien Tue Hamlet, Kien Hai Special Zone, An Giang Province) had an accident in the Lai Son sea area. The Command of Hon Son Border Guard Station promptly rescued and pulled the vehicle safely ashore.

Hon Son Border Guard Station (under the An Giang Provincial Border Guard Command) received a report that while anchored about 300m from shore in the Bai Gieng area (Thien Tue hamlet), the vehicle was suddenly hit by strong waves, causing the water to break, leading to it sinking into the sea. Faced with the emergency situation, local people assisted in pulling the vehicle to the Bai Bang area to salvage it. However, due to the continuous strong waves, the rescue work encountered many difficulties.
