Recovery of hijacked ship Suvard near Garakad
The commercial ship "Svarad" was released near Garacad City in Puntland after being hijacked on April 26 by Somali pirates, according to a local security source. It was freed in exchange for a ransom, the amount of which has not been disclosed. The pirates had seized the vessel five days after the hijacking of the oil tanker "Honour 25," and this incident is part of a series of piracy operations targeting ships in Somali waters with the aim of obtaining ransom. International anti-piracy efforts in the region began in 2008 and have led to a significant decrease in kidnapping incidents since 2013.
