In a startling incident at the Abidjan anchorage in Ivory Coast, the vessel 'Nord Valorous' came under attack by armed robbers on January 19, 2019, at approximately 10:40 p.m. The ship's vigilant duty seaman, while conducting routine patrols, spotted a ladder suspiciously hooked onto the vessel's guardrails, leading to the discovery of two assailants brandishing long knives near the ship's poop deck winch. Promptly alerting the Officer of the Watch, an alarm was raised on board. In a swift response, the ship's Master directed a searchlight at the intruders, causing the robbers to hastily abandon their scheme and flee the scene with stolen ship's stores in hand. This incident highlights ongoing security challenges faced by maritime operations in the region.
