Mogadishu (HOL) – A Yemeni-flagged fishing vessel has been hijacked off the Somali coast near Durdura, close to Eyl, in the latest sign of resurgent piracy in the region. Seven armed men seized control of the vessel on Sunday, taking eight Somali crew members hostage, according to European Union Naval Force (EUNAVFOR) Operation ATALANTA.
