Royal Marines retake 3 hijacked vessels | October 2011

In October 2011, Royal Fleet Auxiliary vessel, R.F.A. Fort Victoria, and the Royal Navy's Type 23 Frigate, HMS Somerset, were on patrol in the Indian Ocean. Both had a detachment of Royal Marines onboard which, over the course of four days, would be employed to retake three hijacked vessels, among them Italian-flagged bulk carrier, the MV Montecristo. By the end of the operations, the Marines would have captured just over twenty pirates and freed upto fifty hostages; all without firing a single round in action. ------------------------------ Music licensed from Artlist.io The Conversation by Theatre of Delays Reflection by Oliver Michael ------------------------------ NO PART OF THIS VIDEO MAY BE REPRODUCED IN ANY FORM (REACTIONS OR RE-UPLOADED) WITHOUT THE PRIOR PERMISSION OF THE CREATOR ------------------------------ Patreon Supporters Craig Lanham/Brayden Bentle/Jacob Sherman/Wiccaner Holmes/fallen0331/ BEARman/Akso/Ashton Astwood/Fredrik Nilsen/Thecolon24/Sean Speer/Maverick White/Bill Brockman/Nicholas Fuller/Luis Pena/Brett Wells/Keith Limberg/Kevin Hill/Puks/BEARDEDGUY/Brad Harding/Gavan Tanham/Bruce Lipe/Thomas Gosney/Mark Varley/Rolf Andre Grimsby/Christopher/Matt Collins/Apollo/Tith SreyVibol/Mark Dougherty/Oscar Rigo/Silvio Masis/Adam Loos/Josh Hodges/tulvgard/Mole/NNJAfoot/Michael A McBroom/MFC Ninja/Philip/Juan Cedillo/Quasolaris/Isaac Morpurgo/omega21/Bern Price/Alex Alexandrow/BrickDickRick/Connor Webber/George Stephan/Infrequent Traveler/jes kg/Escipio Sumski ------------------------------ Want to support the Channel?
