The Danish navy further announced that the frigate was close enough to send a team to the suspected pirates with the aim to board, but the vessel did not react when ordered to stop. The team issued warning shots after which the suspected pirates opened fire directly at the Danish soldiers who responded in self-defence. After a brief exchange of fire, four suspected pirates died, and one was injured. None of the Danish soldiers were hurt.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">BIMCO has persistently called for international support in the area and in May launched the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.bimco.org\/ships-ports-and-voyage-planning\/security\/gulf-of-guinea-declaration-on-suppression-of-piracy\">Gulf of Guinea Declaration on Suppression of Piracy\u00a0<\/a>together with the industry.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Following the incident, BIMCO\u2019s Secretary General and CEO, David Loosley says:<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cBIMCO is grateful to the Danish Navy for their firm actions to stop suspected pirates in the Gulf of Guinea. While every loss of life is tragic, we note the Danish special forces \u2013 acting in accordance with international law \u2013 were forced to fire in self-defence directly against the suspected pirates.\u201d<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Danish frigate left Denmark for Gulf of Guinea at the end of October 2021. The aim is that the visible presence of the Esben Snare in the area will be a deterrent for pirates, but Danish authorities have announced that the frigate will also try to actively locate pirates and intervene where possible if pirate attacks occur.<\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u201cWe hope this incident will have a deterrent effect on pirate groups considering attacking shipping in the Gulf of Guinea. For too long Niger Delta based pirate groups have been allowed to operate almost unhindered in the world\u2019s number one piracy hotspot: The Eastern Gulf of Guinea. We continue to call for all naval forces in the area to further increase the pressure against the pirate groups and act with determination and in accordance with international law,\u201d says BIMCO\u2019s Head of Maritime Safety and Security, Jakob Larsen.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Denmark is not the only country to react to the problem of piracy attacks in the Gulf of Guinea. In November 2020 an Italian warship disrupted a pirate attack on a tanker, and in October 2021 a Russian warship chased off a pirate group attacking a container ship. Other countries support the efforts through capacity building and joint patrols with regional navies. In mid-October, the UK announced that it would deploy a naval vessel plus a contingent of Royal Marines to the Gulf of Guinea to help in the battle against piracy.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The Gulf of Guinea continues to be particularly dangerous for seafarers with 32% of all reported incidents of piracy in the first half of 2021 taking place in the region, according to the International Chamber of Commerce&#8217;s International Maritime Bureau.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Source : BIMCO<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>According to the
