Admiralty reports rogue frigate seized by special forces
In a daring night raid by Special Forces combat swimmers, the frigate Nammarth has been retaken, according to an announcement published by the Admiralty.
The swimmers approached the ship from underwater, having been deployed from the shadowing ships. The swimmers then boarded the vessel from amidships and the aft helicopter deck before moving into the interior using tear gas and less-than-lethal weapons. After the raid, over twenty people were reported killed and another forty to have varying degrees of injury. Of the 200 crewmen assigned to the ship, less than two-thirds have been accounted for, with the Captain, Vice Captain and several other officers among those missing.
The Nammarth is now reportedly under tow en route to Kahului Naval Base in Hemar, where a full inquiry has already been impaneled to determine what happened aboard the vessel.
