Somalia kidnappers' sailors seek release
Egypt is exerting intensive diplomatic pressure to secure the release of 12 sailors, including 8 Egyptians, who have been detained for more than four months aboard a oil tanker off the Somali coast after it was hijacked by pirates. Egyptian authorities are in contact with officials in Somalia, Yemen, and the ship's owning company to ensure the safety of the sailors and improve their conditions. Meanwhile, their families remain concerned about the stalled ransom negotiations, some of which were conducted in early June. Egyptian efforts emphasize the urgent need to free the sailors quickly and to provide them with legal protection.
