A Russian Navy destroyer has actually warded off a pirate assault on a container ship near the western coastline of Africa, Russia’s Defence Ministry claimed on Tuesday.
Destroyer Vice Admiral Kulakov obtained a call for help from Panama- signed up container ship Lucia en course from Togo to Cameroon on Monday, the ministry claimed in a declaration, as well as sent off a system of marines on a helicopter to it.
The pirates quickly ran away, enabling Russian soldiers to release the ship’s staff.
The Russian destroyer became part of a team patrolling the Gulf of Guinea to guarantee the safety of noncombatant navigating.
