✦AI Summary
A mechanised fishing vessel capsized off the coast of Visakhapatnam on July 4, 2026, resulting in the presumed deaths of six fishermen. Despite a 72-hour multi-agency search, only one crew member survived the 18-hour ordeal in rough sea conditions.
Under the humid Visakhapatnam sky, the fishing harbour, a roaring trade hub, has turned into a theatre of grief. The usual boisterous chatter about the vibrant catches among the fishermen has vanished, while people from the community sobbing for their missing family members has become a common sight in the past week.
