Summary
This documentary chronicles the harrowing tale of the MV Iceberg 1, a container ship hijacked by Somali pirates and held captive for nearly 1,000 days. As the crew faced brutal conditions and their owners abandoned them, a group of mercenaries trained the newly formed Puntland Maritime Police Force for a daring rescue mission.Instagram - @realstoriesdocsAny queries, please contact us at: [email protected]
