The Regional Cooperation Agreement on Combating Piracy and Armed Robbery against Ships in Asia (ReCAAP) has reported three incidents of armed robbery against ships in the Singapore Strait oon Oct 25, 2020, within intervals of two hours and in close proximity to each other. The attacked ships were the 'Seajourney', the 'A Racer' and the 'El Matador'. All the three ships reported unauthorised perpetrators who fled after the ships raised the alarm. Nothing was stolen and crew members were safe in all three incidents. ReCAAP has advised all ships to exercise utmost vigilance, adopt extra precautionary measures when sailing in the region and it has urged the littoral states to increase patrols and enforcement in their respective waters. The Master reported to the Singapore authorities that one perpetrator was sighted in the vicinity of the entrance to the engine room, in approximate position 001 14 34.8N, 104 04 16.8E, in the Singapore Strait, at about 2309 hrs, local time, Oct 25.

The Singapore Police Coast Guard and the Indonesian authorities were notified and a safety navigational broadcast was initiated.
