A South Korea-operated, Singapore-owned oil tanker has been hijacked by Somali pirates in the Indian Ocean with 24 crew onboard.
The 300,000-tonne Samho Dream - loaded with crude oil - was on its way from Iraq to the United States when it was seized on Sunday.
This is one of only a handful of VLCCs that have been hijacked and ransom demands are expected to be high due to the amount of oil onboard - estimated to be worth £110million.
