South Korea and China will launch joint surveillance against illegal fishing in waters shared by the two countries starting from October, the South Korean government said Sunday.
The first-ever joint crackdown on illegal fishing in the Yellow Sea will be launched in October with patrol ships from both countries inspecting fishing boats operating in a joint fishing area there, according to the Ministry of Oceans and Fisheries.
The agreement came at a meeting held in China’s Weihai this week.
