A Greek sailor was killed off the Cameroon coast in an attack by pirates, the Greek Ministry of Trade Fleet announced on Tuesday.
“The death (of the sailor) occurred as a result of an attack by an unidentified pirate ship on two fishing boats sailing under the Cameroon flag,” a press release issued by the ministry says.
The attack took place on January 24, the ministry indicated.
The fishing boats, which belong to an ethnic Greek from Cameroon, were able to repel the attack. No other dead or injured, besides the dead sailor, were reported.
