A German naval patrol detained nine suspected pirates off the coast of Somalia on Tuesday after successfully stopping an attack on a freighter ship operated by a company based in Germany.
Germany's armed forces, the Bundeswehr, reported that the crew on board the Rheinland-Pfalz received an emergency call from the freighter MV Courier at 7:12 a.m, a ship flying the flag of Antigua and Barbuda. The ship's crew reported the Courier had been shot at with rocket-propelled grenades and firearms.
