Indian navy monitors bulk carrier believed to have been hijacked by pirates
The Indian Navy said on Saturday that it is shadowing a bulk carrier that was boarded by unknown attackers – likely Somali pirates – in the Arabian Sea.
The Maltese-flagged MV Ruen, with a crew of 18, had sent a Mayday message on the United Kingdom Maritime Trade Operations (UKMTO) portal on Thursday indicating that six unknown people had boarded the vessel, the Indian Navy said in its statement.
