HANGZHOU, CHINA (BNO NEWS) -- Eleven people are missing after their fishing boat hit a rock in the East China Sea on early Monday morning, state-run media reported.

The state-run Xinhua news agency cited maritime officials as saying that a fishing boat hit a rock near Dongji Isle off the coast of Taizhou City in Zhejiang Province at around 1 a.m. local time. Two rescue vessels were sent while civilian ships in the area were asked to join the rescue operations.

By 9 a.m. local time, rescuers had still not found the boat and officials believe the vessel has sunk, Xinhua added. Other details were not immediately available.
