Search for DPRK sailors
Chinese maritime authorities have launched a search for seamen from the Democratic People's Republic of Korea (DPRK) yesterday who went missing after their cargo ship sank off China's coast.
Altogether 20 DPRK crew members were aboard the vessel when it sank in strong winds about 170 km southeast of Dalian in Northeast China at noon on Tuesday, said Zheng Jian of the Ministry of Transport's Rescue and Salvage Bureau.
