Lloyd’s List maps anti-piracy campaign

That’s maritime piracy we’re talking here, not music downloads…
Lloyd’s List has created a microsite to support its ‘Save our Seafarers’ campaign complete with news updates, video and an interactive map of the latest attacks.
The campaign was launched in reaction to a rise in piracy attacks off the Somalian coast. According to Lloyd’s, 11 vessels have been hijacked and 234 seafarers are currently being held.
