According to information from the Ho Chi Minh City Border Guard, on the evening of June 4, the Hiep Phuoc Port Border Guard Station (Ho Chi Minh City Port Border Guard) rescued two people on a barge that sank on the river due to heavy rain and big waves.
Accordingly, at around 6:00 p.m. on June 4, Soai Rap Border Control Station forces patrolled the area under their management.
At the Phu My 1 buoy area of Soai Rap channel, authorities discovered a barge with license plate LA 08086 traveling on Soai Rap river in the direction from Dong Nai to Long An with signs of sinking due to rain, wind, and big waves.
Immediately, the forces of the Ho Chi Minh City Border Guard approached. When the functional forces approached, the barge was also sunk by the big waves. The two people on the barge, Mr. Nguyen Van Ut Nam (born in 1973) and Mrs. Huynh Thi Kim Buong (born in 1977), both residing in Can Duoc district, Long An, were rescued and brought to shore safely.
