Pirates seize vessel off Somalia


"The BBC's Jonah Fisher, on board a nearby UK naval vessel, said the captain of the MV Saldanha radioed that pirates had boarded his ship.

The pirates had ordered the captain to warn the British warship, the HMS Northumberland, to stay away.

The British vessel is part of an EU task force patrolling the waters off the unstable Horn of Africa to deter pirate attacks."
