Iran navy rescues ship from pirates
2012-02-26
Azerbaijan, Baku -- Iranian commandos saved an oil tanker from sea pirates, Fars news agency reports.

An Iranian oil tanker was traveling near the Bab-el Mandeb Strait between the Arabian Peninsula and Africa when it was attacked by six pirate vessels. Iranian commandos were able to drive the pirates away after firing on them.
Was this before or after they transferred weapons to the Eritreans?
