Piracy Crackdown Off Somalia
2012-01-14
"Somali pirates routinely use "motherships" accompanied by a number of speedboats and skiffs to commit acts of piracy. The large numbers of detainees in the last two weeks point to significant actions being taken against these "motherships" by the various navies."
