Two Chinese fishermen drowned while being chased away by the Taiwanese coast guard off the coast of Kinmen on Wednesday. Kinmen is a group of islands located just six miles away from mainland China.
According to Taiwanese authorities, the fishermen had trespassed into their waters and resisted an inspection of the boat. This led to a chase, during which the boat with four fishermen onboard capsized. Two of them drowned after falling into the sea, while the other two were rescued.
