The Bangladesh Navy has intensified its rescue operation to locate six fishermen who went missing after a fishing trawler sank in the Bay of Bengal during a storm. The naval warship BNS Gomti is leading the deep-sea search, continuing operations without interruption to find the missing crew members. The incident occurred when the trawler, carrying 11 fishermen, capsized about 100 to 150 kilometers southeast of Payra seaport last Sunday. Five fishermen were rescued alive, but six remain unaccounted for.
According to reports, all the missing fishermen are residents of Galachipa upazila in Patuakhali district. The Navy is coordinating with other relevant agencies to sustain the search and rescue efforts despite challenging sea conditions. Families of the missing men are anxiously waiting for news as the rescue teams continue their mission.
The ongoing operation highlights the risks faced by coastal fishing communities during adverse weather in the Bay of Bengal and the Navy’s continued commitment to maritime safety.
