    An aerial photograph shows a small vessel on fire in open ocean waters. The boat, which appears to be a fishing or small commercial vessel with a white hull and green stripe, has active flames and heavy black smoke billowing from its mid-to-stern section. The image was taken from an elevated vantage point, likely from an aircraft during a maritime emergency response.

    A fire burns uncontrollably aboard the Taiwanese fishing vessel Shin Maan Chun Saturday in the Pacific Ocean. The fire forced the crew of nine to abandon ship and through a coordinated effort between the U.S. 7th Fleet and U.S. Coast Guard Sector Guam, all of the fishermen were safely rescued and brought aboard the Marshallese-flagged bulk carrier Semirio.

    An aerial photograph shows a large red and yellow cargo or tanker vessel underway on open water. In the lower-left portion of the image, a dark slick or debris field is visible on the water surface, possibly indicating an oil spill or pollution event. The image appears to have been captured from an aircraft, likely during a maritime incident monitoring operation.
    A nighttime aerial or elevated view captured in black-and-white (likely infrared or thermal imaging) showing a rescue or maritime emergency scenario on open water. A small motorized vessel with visible lights is positioned near an inflatable life raft on choppy seas. The life raft appears to have its canopy deployed, suggesting survivors may be sheltering inside.
