NAIROBI — Somali pirates have captured a small Saudi tanker and its crew of 14 in the Gulf of Aden, a Kenyan maritime official said Wednesday.
The MT Al Nisr Al Saudi, a 5,136 tonne tanker, was seized on Monday with its Greek captain and 13 Sri Lankan crew members, said Andrew Mwangura, who heads the East African Seafarers Assistance Programme.
"It was on its way from Japan to Jeddah" in Saudi Arabia, he said.
