In April 2009, the hijacking of Maersk Alabama by Somali pirates shocked the world, but the roots of Somali piracy go much deeper. This video uncovers the real story behind Somalia’s pirates—how years of civil war, foreign exploitation of their waters, and illegal toxic waste dumping pushed local fishermen into piracy. From hijackings to billion-dollar ransom deals, and the dramatic rescue of Captain Richard Phillips by U.S. Navy SEALs, we break down how Somali piracy evolved into a global crisis and how international efforts ultimately brought it under control. But is piracy truly over, or is it just shifting to new waters?
