Amerikansk krigsskib sænker piratskib

Efter en halvanden time lang jagt, lykkedes det torsdag et amerikanske krigsskib at sænke et somalisk piratskib og tage de fem om bord værende pirater til fange. Episoden fandt sted i farvandet mellem Seychellerne og den somaliske kyst.

I følge den amerikanske flåde, var det piraterne der åbnede ild, hvorefter amerikanerne besvarede beskydningen.

Piraterne forsøgte herefter at flygte, hvilket udviklede sig til en over halvanden time lang jagt, inden piraternes skib blev skudt i sænk. De fem om bord værende pirater blev reddet og bragt om bord på det amerikanske krigsskib.

Episoden komme dagen efter at det lykkedes en tyrkisk fregat at overmande og tage ni formodede pirater til fange.

Pirater har optrappet antallet af angreb i Aden Bugten og i Det indiske Ocean kraftigt i de seneste måneder. Mindst 32 skibe er blevet angrebet siden januar.
