CNN.com Report: Somali Pirates grab 50 Yemeni Fishermen
CNN.com - Report: Pirates grab 50 fishermen - Mar 7, 2006: "Saba quoted a Yemeni official as saying that Somali pirates abducted the fishermen on Monday from four boats off of Yemen's Abdul-Kori island, part of Socotra -- a small archipelago in the Indian Ocean off the Horn of Africa."
