Two French Citizens Captured by Somali Pirates

Two French citizens sailing off the coast of Somalia have had their boat seized and are being held captive by a group of pirates.

Piracy off Somalia’s coast is among the highest in the world as the country lacks the structure to effectively take on the groups who often target shipping vessels, fishing boats, yachts and cargo ships. Once pirates commandeer the vessels they often demand a hefty ransom for their hostages release.

Without a functioning central government for the past 17 years Somalia has been able to do little to combat the pirates but in June the UN Security Council voted to allow countries to place war ships in the waters to combat the pirates.
