“Making the world a safer place to live and work”
Indian Ocean Region A fishing deal signed between the Somalia government and vessels tied to the China Overseas Fish-eries Association raises serious questions. Some Somalis, particularly those in the fishing community, worry that their livelihoods will be gutted, while others fear a return of piracy in the Gulf of Aden. “It’s shocking to see the ministry of fisheries signing such a one-sided contract with a Chinese compa-ny,” said Abdirizak Mohamed, a Somali MP representing the coastal Hirshabelle region, 40 kilometres north of Mogadishu, the capital. “It actually gives China the advantage,” he told RFI.

US air strikes kill terrorists in SomaliaUnited States special forces have killed at least 15 members of Islamist terrorist group al-Shabaab in two air strikes in Somalia, the US Africa command says. The terrorists were killed near the towns of Gandarshe and Bariire in Lower Shebelle Region on Wednesday and Thursday, the command said on Friday 8th.
President Farmajo meets with the UN Secretary GeneralThe Secretary-General met with President Mohamed Abdul-lahi Mohamed “Farmajo” of the Federal Republic of Somalia on Feb. 10th, on the margins of the African Union Summit.The Secretary-General commended the Federal Government of Somalia’s (FGS) reform agenda and underscored the im-portance of implementing the FGS’s roadmaps on Inclusive Politics, Security and Justice, Economic Recovery, and Social Development, in close cooperation with Somalia’s Federal Member States.
Kenya joins global coalition against Islamic StateOn Tuesday 5th, Kenya was formally accepted into the Global Coalition against Daesh (also known as Isil, Islamic State, or Isis), seeking to benefit from information shared and systems the countries use to tame financial flows to the terror group.
Somalia lobbies AU Summit for US$4.6 billion international debt cancellationSomali government officials, international development part-ners and civil society organisations engaged in humanitarian operations in Somalia met at the African Union Summit to lob-by African leaders to approve massive debt cancellation for war-ravaged Somalia.
U.S. Warns Citizens Of Possible Attack In KenyaOn Monday 11th, the United States warned its citizens residing in Kenya of possibly imminent attacks by terrorist groups, re-ferring particularly to the Islamic fundamentalist organization al-Shabaab.
AnalysisAl Shabaab continues to mount operations throughout the coun-try, despite efforts by US Central Command to degrade its ca-pabilities with ongoing airstrikes and the work done by AMISOM forces. Threat AssessmentThe political situation has seen increased tension between re-gional states and the Federal Government. Should this continue, there is an opportunity for criminal organisations to return to their previous maritime activities. Al Shabaab continues to challenege the government and efforts to disrupt its operations continue, although AMISOM forces will withdraw in 2019. The trade in il-legal charcoal by terror and crime groups continues, although the Combined Maritime Forces and UN are working on measures to prevent it. Youth unemployment in Somalia has not improved with 67% of Somali male youths aged between 14 to 29 unemployed. Pirate financiers offer lucrative and attractive opportunities, and were seen to be increasingly active in the last inter-monsoon period. Recent incidents off Somalia have highlighted the robust protections offered by both BMP5 and well trained, vigilant armed protection teams. Illegal fishing has returned to the region and there are wider political concerns that it could spark a resurgence in maritime crime unless checked. There is a risk that compla-cency in some quarters has seen a reduction in PMSC presence in these waters that could result in a piracy success. A lack of adherence to BMP5 protocol, particularly not maintaining a safe distance off the coast, has increased risks to shipping. Merchant vessels would be wise to maintain the same distance from the coast, particularly ensuring that the Socotra Gap isn’t taken. All vessels are advised to update risk assessments and register with UKMTO/MSCHOA prior to entering the Indian Ocean High Risk Area (HRA).

Mediterranean Spain has rejected a plan put forward by Germany and France aimed at establishing a mechanism to take in irregular migrants who arrive in the European Union. Madrid voiced its objection to the idea on Thursday 7th given that it would be limited to migrants who arrive in Italy or Malta, and would not include Spain. This is despite the fact that since last year, the latter country has had to cope with the highest number of arrivals.
Vessel in distress off LibyaJapanese media reported on Feb. 12th that a boat containing up to 150 migrants was reportedly in distress off Al Khoms, Libya. An Italian NGO was appealing for assistance in rescu-ing the occupants, hoping they wouldn’t be returned to Libya.
Ship Carrying Undocumented Migrants Sinks Off Algeria’s CoastA small ship with 18 undocumented migrants on board sank in the Mediterranean Sea near the Algerian city of Oran on Saturday 9th, at least two people have died in the incident, the Algeria Press Service (APS) news agency reported.
Mediterranean Migrant Arrivals Reach 6,932; Deaths Reach 211The International Organization for Migration (IOM) reports that 6,932 migrants and refugees have entered Europe by sea through the first 38 days of 2019, a 12 per cent decrease from the 7,795 arriving during the same period last year. Deaths on the three main Mediterranean Sea routes through just over five weeks of the new year are at 211 individuals, compared with 391 deaths during the same period in 2018.
France not to take migrants saved in Med: Italian mediaFrance will not take irregular migrants rescued in the Medi-terranean Sea any longer, Italian local media claimed on Fri-day 8th citing officials. “France has changed its mind about taking a share of the 47 asylum seekers that recently disem-barked from the Sea-Watch search-and-rescue ship in Sic-ily,” Italian news agency ANSA reported citing Interior Ministry officials.
The current migrant smuggling situationThe politcal impasse in the region continues, with news that Spain has rejected efforts to create a mechanism to take in migrants who arrive in the EU. Hopefully, this can be solved with further incentives from the EU itself, although this is by no means certain. As efforts at sea falter, the need for greater po-litical agreement becomes more pressing. Crossing numbers fo January remain down, year on year, but fatalities continue to rise. The political will to make meaningful change remains elu-sive, while Italy’s position on migrant disembarkation is largely unchanged.

Incidents: Nothing significant to report.
Standing advice: The repercussions of a vessel being caught acting as a mule with drugs stowed will depend on the type, amount and na-tional laws, but may be disruptive and costly. When and if operating in these areas, especially Columbia and Peru, it is advised that: • Potential stowage areas such as rudder shafts are denied as far as possible, and/or routinely searched. • Access points are closely monitored by a vigilant watch for the duration of the vessel’s call at port.
