One of the miners trapped after a gold mine in Sinaloa collapsed emerged from the darkness alive. Located with the help of a team of divers, the rescue of Francisco Zapata Najera gave hope to those waiting outside.

After six weeks stranded in the Gulf, one of the 20,000 seafarers trapped by Iran's chokehold on the strait of Hormuz is reaching their limit. We're at anchor, near dozens of loaded tankers. No one has moved an inch.

Four people have died after a small boat sank in the Channel between France and Britain, according to French local authorities. The situation is still being assessed and remains subject to change.

"There are not very many conservation issues that I'm aware of where industry and conservationists and consumers and the fishermen and the resource users all want the same thing. Every stakeholder wants less bycatch."

The Mexican Navy activated search and rescue efforts in the Caribbean on Thursday, in hopes to locate two missing sailboats which were carrying humanitarian aid to crisis-hit Cuba.

The Arctic Metagaz was part of a Russian shadow fleet used to circumvent sanctions imposed on the country's oil and gas after its full-scale invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. It was struck in a suspected drone attack close to Maltese waters earlier this month, causing a huge hole.

A car went into the water at the Sausalito Yacht Harbor Monday afternoon. Two people were in that car and both were rescued -- a bystander was able to dive in and pull one person out. That person was taken to the hospital. An emergency dive team was deployed to the scene and rescued the second person, who seems OK.

Angel Nieves, 37, of New Bedford, was one of two crew members aboard the vessel, which was discovered about two nautical miles off the coast of Provincetown, the Cape & Islands District Attorney's Office said in a statement. Nieves was recovered from the water by the U.S. Coast Guard and Massachusetts Environmental Police, according to the DA's office. He was then brought to MacMillan Pier, where Provincetown fire officials determined that he was 'no longer viable for resuscitation.'

Recovered CWMs continue to pose worker and food safety risks. Because of ocean drift, storms, and offshore industries, sea-disposed CWMs locations are largely unknown and potentially far from their originally documented dump site. The three incidents exposed at least six crew members to mustard agent, which causes blistering chemical burns on skin and mucous membranes.

The Coast Guard said it received an alert about the overturned vessel shortly before noon. The Yankee Rose had two people onboard when it capsized roughly three nautical miles northeast of Race Point in Provincetown, the agency said.

We were always shackled [by Israel], Sehwail said quietly. But one period was less harsh than another. Even before October 2023, when Israel started its genocidal war on Gaza, the Palestinian enclave's fishermen operated under heavy restrictions imposed by Israel. Fishing zones were repeatedly reduced. Maritime boundaries outlined in agreements since the 1993 Oslo Accords were rarely implemented on the water.

The alarm was raised just after 9am, today, January 15 when the Coast Guard's Marine Rescue Co-Ordination Centre in Valentia received a call from Spanish counterparts in Madrid requesting their assistance for a Medivac for two injured fishermen. The men were on board the boat Novo Alborada which was approximately 30 miles southwest of Valentia. It is understood the men were injured when a rope snapped.

The US armed forces have for months been carrying out lethal strikes against vessels it says were engaged in drug smuggling in the Caribbean and Eastern Pacific. Now, the families of two men killed in one of those strikes are suing the US government for damages. Two family members of Trinidadian nationals said to have been killed in a US boat strike in the Caribbean have accused the federal government of engaging in "unlawful" activity.

On September 14, Alejandro Carranza, a 42-year-old fisherman, set out to sea from a remote town in La Guajira, Colombia's northernmost province, bordering Venezuela. It was an ordinary fishing trip, in search of tuna and marlin, said Leonardo Vega, a childhood friend and the president of the fishing association Carranza belonged to. But this time, Carranza never returned.

The latest bombing brings the total death toll from US boat strikes to 125 since September, raising human rights concerns. The administration of President Donald Trump has announced United States' latest boat strike in international waters, which killed two people in the Eastern Pacific Ocean. Friday's attack brings the total number of bombings to at least 36 since Trump began his campaign on September 2. An estimated 125 people have been killed, including the two latest casualties.

The nation's oldest seaport marked a "very difficult benchmark" Monday as the U.S. Coast Guard confirmed the names of the seven people presumed dead in the sinking of the Lily Jean, a Gloucester-based fishing boat. State Sen. Bruce Tarr struggled to keep his composure as he recited the names of the fallen: Captain Accursio "Gus" Sanfilippo, crew members Paul Beal Sr., Paul Beal Jr., John Rousanidis, Freeman Short, and Sean Therrien, and NOAA fisheries observer Jada Samitt.

Jacob Rajaniemi's exact cause of death is being investigated along with the exact amount of time he'd been in the water before he was found, said Emily Fuller, a public information specialist with the Sonoma County Sheriff's Office. "Our marine unit is conducting a boating accident investigation and the coroner's office is conducting their death investigation, so once those are both complete we should have a better idea of what happened," Fuller told The Press Democrat.

Several crew members of a ship that collided with a bridge in Baltimore almost two years ago are still being held in the US by federal authorities despite the fact that no criminal charges have been brought against them. In the early hours of 26 March 2024, the MV Dali departed the port of Baltimore bound for Sri Lanka. While navigating the Fort McHenry channel, the 1,000ft-long Singapore-flagged cargo vessel lost power before striking the bridge. The impact resulted in the deaths of six people who were working on the bridge at the time.
