Korean warship rescues Hanjin vessel

Hanjin Shipping reported late last night that its 6,500 teu ship, Hanjin Tianjin, and its crew have been safely rescued by Choi Young, the Korean warship and its special force.


Pirates were not found at the scene.


“There was some damage done to the ship by the pirates' first and second attacks. Our crew stopped the engine to hold the ship and hid in the citadel to protect themselves from the pirate attack,” Hanjin said in a statement.


The ship is now sailing to Singapore while being guarded by Choi Young, the Korean warship.
