Rescue teams from China and Vietnam are racing to locate 23 crew members after a Vietnamese cargo ship sank in the South China Sea, according to Chinese state media.
The vessel, identified as Khoi Nguyen 18, was carrying 62 crew members when it ran into trouble near Yongshu Reef, also known as Fiery Cross Reef, on Saturday evening. Authorities said 39 people have been rescued so far, while search efforts remain underway for those still unaccounted for.
