NATO Pirate Fighting Ships will Return to Gulf

(Version anglaise seulement)
NATO is sending four of its anti-piracy ships back to the Gulf of Aden sooner than planned because of the surge of attacks by Somali brigands there.

Last week, four of the flotilla's five ships in the waterway left to visit Karachi, Pakistan, and they planned to travel from there to Southeast Asia and Australia. But NATO's naval spokesman Cmdr. Chris Davies said Monday that the ships will return to the waters off Somalia this week. Davies says the surge of piracy in the Gulf of Aden, a major commercial shipping route, is a cancer, and that NATO wants to play its part in the international effort to fight it. Many nations _ including the U.S., the EU, Russia, China, Japan and South Korea _ have deployed warships to the region to fight piracy.
