Somali pirates have shifted their operations from the Gulf of Aden to the Bab al-Mandab Straits, the Interior Ministry has said.


All necessary measures have been taken to face the move amid stepped pirate attacks in the region, the ministry's information center said. Since early June, pirates have attacked more than 10 Yemeni ships and oil tankers but all attacks were thwarted by the Coastguard and security onboard the ships and tankers, the center said. All attacks were faced in the straits, it added.
