   ~ South Korean ship crew found safe after apparent attack ~

           Article:
         The 20 crew of a South Korean freighter were found safe Thursday after locking themselves in a safe room during an apparent pirate attack.The Hanjin Tianjin was attacked by suspected pirates earlier in the day, but when a nearby South Korean warship hurried to the scene after being alerted, the officers found the crew unharmed. 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 (safe room) to protect themselves from the pirate attack.The company lost contact with the 75,000-ton, Panama-flagged container ship earlier Thursday when it was about 850 kilometres off the coast of Somalia, on its way from from Spain to Singapore. The crew consists of 14 South Koreans and six Indonesians.



  Reaction :    
        I think its good that they found all these people before they died or got seriously injured ,because I know they didn't have anything to eat or drink. Its also bad that they had to do this because of pirates trying to attack them .But i wonder how did the officers know that these people hid they self in this safe , because I know they didn't have any phones or anything to call .
