North Korean 'ghost boats' wash ashore in Russia

'Ghost' fishing boats from North Korea have been washing ashore in Russia after heavy storms. The chillingly empty vessels have been scattering Primorsky Krai, in Russia's Far East. The boats started being discovered around August 6 and 7. This particular footage was filmed in the Sea of Japan on August 6. Russia shares an 11 mile land border and a 12 nautical mile sea border with North Korea. The latest fishing vessels were found on Russky Island on August 25, filled with personal belongings but without a crew. On August 27 a yacht called 'The Time Machine' discovered a drifting boat bearing similar North Korean insignia near the uninhabited Stenin Island in the Sea of Japan. Yacht Captain Mikhail Yermakov told The Siberian Times that, "we passed the coordinates to the State Inspection of Small Boats, they notified [us] that they would think [about] what to do with it." "We did not see any people on board. We shouted but there was silence. Most likely the boat was brought by typhoons into our waters."
