Taiwan coast guard seizes Chinese fishing boat near Penghu, detains 6 crew
Posted on 2026-06-20 11:08:13
The Coast Guard Administration has detained six crew members from a Chinese
fishing vessel caught operating in restricted waters off an islet in the
Penghu Islands.

The Coast Guard said the vessel was spotted operating 24 nautical miles west
of Huayu -- the westernmost island of the Penghu archipelago yesterday
evening.

The fishing boat ignored repeated siren warnings and tried to evade Taiwanese
authorities.

The boat was soon intercepted and its cargo of 750 kilograms of fish was
dumped into the sea.

The six men will be detained while an investigation proceeds.

The Coast Guard said this was the second time this year a Chinese fishing
vessel has been intercepted while trespassing and fishing in Taiwanese
waters.
