About 5-6 pirates in a boat approached and fired upon a container vessel underway. The pirates managed to come alongside the vessel, destroy part of the razor wire and attempted to hook on their boarding ladder. Master increased speed, took evasive manoeuvres and managed to evade the attack. Vessel and crew safe.

Duty AB on routine rounds onboard an anchored offshore tug noticed a robber on the main deck and immediately notified the bridge. Alarm raised, crew mustered. Seeing alerted crew the robber escaped. On searching the tug the padlocks on the store room doors were found damaged with a few items missing.
