The Pohjanmaa which is participating in the EUNAVFOR antipiracy operation took the 18-man crew into custody and sank the vessel to prevent it from becoming a danger to shipping. The suspected pirate vessel went down in international waters. Two motor launches that were also captured Wednesday are aboard the Pohjanmaa. The order to sink the ship was issued by the Atalanta antipiracy operation headquarters for safety and operative reasons. "We couldn't leave the ship adrift, as it would have posed a danger to other shipping," said the Pohjanmaa's skipper, Commander Pasi Mika Raunu. Before being sunk, all evidence related to possible charges of piracy were removed from the ship, as were materials thought to be a threat to the environment. The crew is still aboard the Pohjanmaa. They are believed to have been involved in an attempt to hijack a Singapore-registered oil tanker in the Indian Ocean on Tuesday.

First thing I imagined was like a bunch of vikings just jumping off of their ship and battleaxeing all the pirates, then setting the shit on fire and just kinda sailing away all drunk and shit because they're Finnish.

[QUOTE=salty peanut v2;29090111]jesus christ[/QUOTE] dane perhaps you can tell me why you have anything against puns?
[QUOTE=The mouse;29090352]Finland's first kill for 70 years :v:[/QUOTE] Don't know if this counts, but during the Cold War russians sent missiles flying over Finland, which every single fucking one of them crashed to the ground under mysterious circumstances. And then the russians tried desperately cover it all up and weird people claiming the wreckage was their homemade rocket project appeared on the scene all the time.

[QUOTE=The mouse;29090352]Finland's first kill for 70 years :v:[/QUOTE]Nah, we've been part of various peacekeeping operations since at least the '50s iirc.
[QUOTE=Sobotnik;29090499]I'm Hungary for more puns.[/QUOTE] Slow down there, russian puns isn't a good idea.
After reading some of the comments posted by finnish people, i'm ashamed being finnish myself. Anyway... Nice to see Finland in some hot explosion action.
