After Taiwanese coast guard officials sought help, the Philippine coast guard said it deployed a Cessna plane Monday and ordered five regional commands to launch a search off the country’s eastern coast where the missing fishing vessel may have drifted from the Pacific.

Two more Taiwanese coast guard vessels were joining the ongoing search, the Philippine coast guard said.

The Philippine coast guard has joined the U.S. and other Taiwanese counterparts in search for a Taiwanese fishing vessel that disappeared 10 days ago.
