AI-generated summary

Why It Matters

필리핀은 7천여 개의 섬으로 구성돼 있어 해상 교통이 활발하지만, 승선 제한 규정 미준수 및 노후 선박으로 인해 해상 사고가 자주 발생하고 있습니다. 1987년 도나 파스호 침몰 사고는 4천300명 이상의 사망자를 낸 역대 최악의 해상 사고로 기록됐습니다.

해안경비대 "42명 구조·수색 진행 중…실종자 수 바뀔 수도"

(자카르타=연합뉴스) 손현규 특파원 = 필리핀 팔라완섬 인근 해상에서 여객선에 불이 나 5명이 숨지고 87명이 실종됐다.

10일(현지시간) AP·로이터 통신 등에 따르면 전날 밤 필리핀 서부 팔라완섬 북부 코론 인근 해상에서 운항 중인 여객선에 불이 났다.

이 사고로 5명이 숨지고 87명이 실종됐으며 42명이 구조됐다고 필리핀 해안경비대는 밝혔다.

노에미 카야뱝 필리핀 해안경비대 대변인은 현지 매체와 인터뷰에서 "승선자 명단에 승객 117명과 승무원 17명이 탄 것으로 기록돼 있었다"면서도 "수색이 진행 중이어서 실종자 수는 바뀔 수도 있다"고 말했다.

구조된 42명 가운데 승객은 38명이며 나머지 4명은 승무원으로 확인됐다.

필리핀 해안경비대가 공개한 영상에는 여객선 선체가 완전히 화염에 휩싸인 모습이 담겼다.

사고 당시 여객선은 마닐라 항구 지역에 있는 바세코에서 출발해 코론으로 향하던 중이었다.

7천여개의 섬으로 이뤄진 필리핀에서는 승선 제한 규정을 지키지 않거나 오래된 선박이 많아 해상 사고가 자주 일어난다.

1987년에는 여객선 도나 파스호가 유조선과 충돌한 뒤 침몰해 4천300여명이 숨지면서 역대 최악의 해상 사고로 기록됐다.
