China marine buoy washed ashore onto Quang Ngai beach
VOV.VN - A local man in Vietnam’s central Quang Ngai province has detected a marine buoy with Chinese scripts drifting ashore, according to Pho Quang Border Guard Station of Quang Ngai province.
According to the initial inspection, the object was said to be a Lidar oceanographic buoy that is capable of monitoring and measuring offshore technical and hydrographic parameters, such as wind conditions, waves, currents, and other environmental factors.
Local authorities swiftly deployed forces to guard and advised local people to avoid where the drifting objects were found for safety reasons.
Earlier on November 25, three unclaimed metal tanks suspected of containing chemicals were found on a beach in Binh Son district, Quang Ngai province.
The cylindrical white tanks, measuring 6 x 2.5m, were brought ashore by waves. The tanks resemble liquefied gas storage devices, with a pump valve, discharge pipe, pressure gauge, and protective steel frame.
