Description

"At approximately 1830 hours on June 7, 2025, the Taiwan-flagged general cargo vessel “XIN FENG”(Gross Tonnage 518) made contact with underwater rocks near Beifeng Pier in Wuqiu Township, Kinmen County, while entering port for berthing. The contact caused flooding in the engine room, and the vessel subsequently grounded along the Wuqiu shoreline.
All eight persons on board, including the master, were safely rescued and brought ashore by an inflatable boat dispatched by the Wuqiu Garrison Battalion. No casualties or environmental pollution resulted from the occurrence."
