September 16, 2008 incident off Somalia : ウィキペディア英語版 | Carré d'As IV incident
On September 16, 2008, a military operation was conducted by French forces off Somalia to retake the yacht ''Carré d'As IV'' from Somali pirates on September 2, 2008. The operation was successful and the two hostages were rescued, the yacht was recovered, one pirate was killed, and six pirates were captured. ==Background== The 50-foot ''Carré d'As IV'' had been sailing from Australia to the Suez Canal when on September 2 when was attacked by pirates and captured with its two crew, Jean-Yves and Bernadette Delanne, who were taken and held for ransom. Four days later the French frigate ''Courbet'' (F 712) arrived on the scene and began shadowing the captured yacht. When contacted, the pirates demanded a one million dollar ransom and the release of six other pirates that were in French custody. The pirates then set course for the city of Eyl on the coast of Puntland, which many pirate gangs use as a base of operations.
