Somali pirates try to hijack cargo ship
The footage is taken aboard the cargo vessel on a video camera strapped to two of the security team’s helmets.
In the video, a small boat can be seen approaching at high speed carrying several armed men.
The private security officers are then seen opening fire.
They first fire warning shots following the captain’s order, and then the real gunfight begins.
The pirates fired shots first in an attempt to board and hijack the ship, but due to the distance between the two vessels, the shots cannot be heard in the video.
