Rescue teams in Indonesia are in a desperate race against time to locate 27 individuals believed to be adrift on a raft, a day after their boat sank in treacherous seas.
The passenger vessel, named Nazila 05, set sail from Taliabu port in North Maluku province on Sunday evening, destined for Kema in North Sulawesi province. It sank in the waters north of Taliabu Island, according to Muhammad Rizal, who leads the search and rescue office in Palu city.
