Jakarta, Rajab 26, 1436, May 15, 2015, SPA -- Indonesian fishing boats and marine police rescued nearly 800 migrants Friday from a sinking vessel, a military official said, as South-East Asia's migrant crisis continued to unfold. The migrants, believed to be mostly of the Rohingya ethnic group from Myanmar and Bangladesh, were initially prevented from reaching the shore pending a consultation with the Indonesian Foreign Ministry, military spokesman Fuad Basya said. However, because their boat was about to sink off Aceh province, local fishermen and marine police moved to rescue the migrants and took them to the Kuala Langsa port in Aceh's Langsa city. --SPA 01:17 LOCAL TIME 22:17 GMT www.spa.gov.sa/w
