TOKYO: Japan's Coast Guard says 10 fishermen -- six Chinese and four Japanese -- are missing off the coast of southern Japan.
Coast guard official Koji Kabashima said Tuesday that a fishing boat carrying the 10 crew members lost contact earlier in the day off the coast of the Nagasaki region in southern Japan.
The coast guard dispatched a plane and a patrol boat to the area, but found only an empty life raft.
