Attack Surge
The number of pirate attacks off the coast of Somalia has increased, and NATO is warning that pirates are once again ready to attack ships travelling through the Indian Ocean.
“In the last few years it has been the case that, come October, when the South West monsoon weakens, the pirates have been able to put to sea and we have seen the number of attacks on merchant vessels increase,” Rear Adm. Hank Ort reported.
