البحر يبتلع قاربًا قبالة الفلبين.. 6 قتلى و9 مفقودين

The Philippine Coast Guard teams recovered six bodies during the search operations for the missing boat "MBCA Amejara" off the southeastern coast of Mindanao in the southern Philippines, while nine people are still missing out of the 15 who were on board, and one person survived earlier.

The Southeast Mindanao Coast Guard Command announced that the last floating body was recovered off Boca Point in Sarangani Province, noting that the boat was reported missing on January 19.

Coast Guard Commander in the region, Rear Admiral Phillips Soria, confirmed that search and rescue operations are still ongoing in coordination with several government agencies, explaining that the teams will expand the search area based on updated drift analyses indicating the possibility of debris reaching Sarangani Bay and the northern Celebes Sea.

The waters off southern Philippines experience recurring incidents involving small boats due to changing weather conditions.
