Together with the previous six bodies found, the total number of dead crewmen found is nine. Only two people survived the accident. The rescue mission is complete.

On Wednesday, a ship specializing in maritime search found the location of the Hải Thành 26 about two nautical miles from the accident site.

The 3,000 ton capacity cargo ship sank at midnight on Monday to about 30m under the Vũng Tàu sea after colliding with another cargo ship.
