Vietnamese fisherman missing after boat hit by Panama-flagged ship


A Panama-flagged cargo ship hit a Vietnamese fishing boat off the southern coast Monday, causing six fishermen to fall into the sea and one of them remains missing.

The Lady Roxana ship left HCMC and hit the fishing boat at around 7:20 a.m. when they were more than 4.5 km off Vung Tau beach town, which borders HCMC.

The fishing boat sank almost entirely, and six of its crew members fell into the sea.
