The Philippine Navy has deployed one of its Norman-Britten
Islander aircrafts to help in the search-and-rescue operations of the 56
fishermen who went missing last week.
Naval Task Force-40 spokesperson Ensign Adeltrude Dayata
said the PNI 314 has been deployed to help the Philippine Coast Guard (PCG) in
its search-and-rescue missions.
The fishermen from Pangasinan were reported missing while
fishing in West Philippine Sea last week during the onslaught of Typhoon
"Kabayan" which battered provinces in Central and Northern
Luzon .
As of Monday, a total of 71 fishermen has been rescued by
the PCG. Over 127 fishermen were reported missing since last week.(
