Navy escorts Taiwan ship in waters off Somalia

The Chinese navy yesterday escorted a Taiwan ship through Somali waters to protect it against pirate attacks.

This is the first time that the navy has escorted a ship from the island in waters off Somalia.

Two navy destroyers and a large supply ship have been patrolling the Somali waters for the past week, and offered to escort ships from the Chinese mainland, Hong Kong, Macao and Taiwan on request.
