The Fisheries Agency released a video at a press conference when a fishing boat and a North Korean fishing boat collided in the Sea of Japan off the Noto Peninsula. While North Korea demanded compensation and prevention of recurrence from the Japanese side, I would like to ask for a broad understanding that this response was appropriate to crack down on illegal operations.
The Fisheries Agency released on July 7 when the Fisheries Agency's fishing vessel “OOKUNI” collided with a North Korean fishing boat within the EEZ = exclusive economic zone of Japan, approximately 350 kilometers off the Noto Peninsula in Ishikawa Prefecture. In addition, it is a video shot from the ship of "Okuni". On the night of the 18th, it was released to the press at a press conference, and then released to the public on the Fisheries Agency website.
In a video edited in about 13 minutes, the cracking ship discharged water to the fishing boat on which the North Korean flag was drawn and the net to use for fishing was confirmed, and warned to leave the exclusive economic zone The fishing boat that had been running sideways turned to the left, and the left side of the fishing boat collided with the sound of a “Gashan” against the bow of the control boat.
And it was released that the fishing boat was sinking soon, the crew who escaped to the sea was rescued by the rescue boat and life raft that the control ship gave out, and then transferred to another North Korean ship one after another .
Regarding this collision, North Korea is asking the Japanese side for compensation and prevention of recurrence because it threatened the safety of sailors' lives. In response to this, the Fisheries Agency would like to ask for a broad understanding that this response was appropriate because it disclosed the situation before and after the collision and the state of the rescue operation, so as to control illegal operations.
