Somali pirates take on the Russians

Every single day it seems there must be a pirate hijacking somewhere along the horn of Africa, Its getting pretty serious... scary now, when i hear the word cruise, I get scared shitless, its the thought of crossing the horn of Africa that scares me the most.

A Russian warship is rushing to assist an oil tanker which has been hijacked by Somali pirates off East Africa. ( Noooo not the Russians!)The Marshal Shaposhnikov was heading to assist the Moscow University, which was attacked 500 miles (800km) off the Somali coast. Shots were fired at the 96,000-tonne tanker from two speedboats, the ship's owner said.

The 23 Russian crew on board are reported to have locked themselves in the ship's radar room. Pirates have seized dozens of ships in the Indian Ocean, someody really needs to stop these guys, They're killing cruise my cruise ship holiday dream of cruising around Mauritius, Comoros....as if..

 Its reported  that numerous groups of pirates are currently holding more than 350 hostages as well as about 20 ships at various bases around the country. Honestly, something has to be done about these guys, its getting sorta outta hand...
