Rescuers in eastern Indonesia have located two survivors from a sunken passenger boat. The survivors, a mother and son, were found on an island. They are 46 and 24 years old, respectively.

The mother and son were stranded on Balaloho Island, which is one of the small inhabited islands in the area. Rescuers are still searching for others who were on the boat, as 18 people remain missing.

Further details about the incident and the ongoing search efforts are available from the source. The incident occurred earlier in the week, and rescuers made the discovery on Sunday.
