Although there was a decrease in indices last year, the region continues to be a high-risk area
July 11, 2022
In 2020 40% of all pirate attacks at the level world were carried out in the Gulf of Guinea and 95% of the abductions of the ships' crews occurred in the region. Although last year a decrease in assaults, however the Gulf continues to be an area where threat levels remain very high ( of 13 January 2022).
