Greek Freighter hijacked near Somalia


"In the latest in a string of attacks by pirates seeking ransom payments, a freighter named as the MV Irene was taken in the Gulf of Aden.

Officials were unable to confirm the nationalities of the crew on board.

It comes after US and French troops managed to free several hostages by opening fire on two groups of pirates."
