>On 11 August 2009, TCG Gaziantep captured 5 more Somali pirates.
A skiff with 5 men on board was sighted 150 miles off shore well inside the International Recommended Transit Corridor. The skiff seemed to be suspicious so that the naval commandoes on board of TCG Gaziantep in assistance with the on board helicopter intercepted it. 22 cans of fuel, GPS receiver and cell phones and ladders for climbing were found on board. Most probably the guns were ditched by the pirates to the sea upon the sight of incoming RHIB.
Two merchant ships, Marshal Islands flagged M/V Dal Madagascar and British flagged M/V CMA CGM Hydra were in close vicinity. Therefore it is assumed that a potential pirate attack was foiled with this operation. The total of captured pirates by Turkish Navy rose to 17.
Update:I was sleepy when I wrote this entry thus mixed up TCG Gaziantep with TCG Gediz. Thanks to anonymous tip-off I have corrected it.
