The fishing vessel that disappeared from radar days ago near Maslen Nos in the Black Sea has been found sunk. There is still no trace of the three crew members – the 58-year-old captain Hristo Spasov, his 25-year-old son, and another worker.

Fishing vessel that disappeared from radar near Sozopol is being searched for

Yesterday, volunteers located an oil slick near Sozopol, close to the site of the disappearance. A specialized team from the Naval Forces confirmed that the vessel is at a depth of about 40 meters. A partial inspection was carried out due to murky water and underwater currents.

Inspections will continue tomorrow, BNR correspondent Daniela Stoynova reported.
