Pirates have boarded a Singapore-registered chemical tanker with 25 crew off the coast of Kenya, the Southeast Asian city-state said on Saturday.
The tanker, Gemini, was headed to Mombasa, Kenya when the incident took place, the Maritime and Port Authority of Singapore said in a statement. A distressed call was received at about 0350 GMT.
Kenya lies south of Somalia, where pirates have made millions of dollars in ransoms by hijacking ships off the coast.
