Indonesian search teams rescued 21 people from a raft on Tuesday morning, a day after their boat — Nazila 05 — sank in rough seas. Everyone on board was found safely.
Officials earlier reported that 27 people were missing, but survivors reported that six people listed on the manifest had cancelled their plans to join the trip.
Rescuers found the survivors, who were mostly fishing crew, on a raft about 46 km from the place where the boat sank in the northern waters of Taliabu Island.
