HORN OF AFRICA/GULF OF GUINEA/ SOUTHEAST ASIA:
Piracy Analysis and Warning Weekly Report
Gulf of Guinea Piracy Advisory
The Office of Naval Intelligence advises all shipping entities operating in the Gulf of Guinea region to maintain vigilance in light of the on-going piracy threat.
Recent activity, specifically - a tanker hijacked within the past week off the coast of Ivory Coast, indicates pirates may be actively seeking to hijack another vessel, potentially in the near-term.
The region at-large remains at-risk to piracy although this advisory is intended to put special emphasis for ships within 100 nautical miles of Tema, Ghana; Lome, Togo; and Contonou, Benin.
