Esbern Snare starter ny pirat-jagt lørdag

Støtteskibet Esbern Snare sejler fra Flådestation Frederikshavn på lørdag den 21. september klokken 16.00 for endnu en gang at indgå i NATO Operation Ocean Shield, der er NATOs antipirateri-operation i Det Indiske Ocean.

Skibets 99 faste besætningsmedlemmer og et 50 mand stort specialhold skal efter planen være udsendt frem til slutningen af januar 2014. Esbern Snare har netop afsluttet to et ugers forberedende træning inden udsendelsen.

Det syvende gang, at Danmark har et krigsskib udsendt i en antipirateri-operation. Første gang var i 2008, hvor støtteskibet Absalon deltog i koalitionsstyrken Task Force 150. Samme år var inspektionsskibet Thetis udsendt i FN World Food Programme i farvandet ud for Somalia.

Problemet med pirateri i Det Indiske Ocean har udviklet sig meget positivt, siden det for alvor tog til i 2008. Siden januar har der kun været to angreb mod skibe og tre forsøg på angreb. Der er i øjeblikket ingen kaprede skibe, men 50 fanger bliver tilbageholdt på land.

Der er dog forventning om, at antallet af angreb ved Somalia og i Det Indiske Ocean igen kan stige, da monsunsæsonen i området nærmer sig sin afslutning.
