在被索马里海盗劫持了31天之后，悬挂孟加拉国国旗的货船MV Abdullah及其23名船员安全抵达迪拜的Al Hamriya港。

该船于周日抵达，结束了始于3月12日的可怕篇章，当时它在从莫桑比克马普托(Maputo)前往阿拉伯联合酋长国(United Arab Emirates)的途中在印度洋被劫持。

据消息人士称，该船于下午4点30分（孟加拉国时间）在官员和海洋交通网站等海上跟踪系统的密切监视下抵达港口。

SR Shipping的母公司、MV Abdullah的船东Kabir Group的发言人米扎努尔·伊斯兰(Mizanul Islam)证实了这艘船的安全抵达。

这场悲剧始于索马里海盗登上MV阿卜杜拉号并控制了这艘船，劫持了23名船员作为人质。

该船装载了55000吨煤炭，随后被改航至索马里海岸，海盗在那里继续改变位置以躲避当局的追踪。

据索马里一家新闻网站报道，在谈判初期，海盗索要500万美元(Tk 55 crore)的赎金。

这一过程需要与船主SR Shipping Limited进行多次讨论，坚持不懈地确保船员安全返回。

在经历了近一个月的不确定性和悬念之后，这些船员最终于4月13日获释。

该船随后开始前往阿拉伯联合酋长国，经过八天的航行后抵达哈姆里亚港。

船长***·阿卜杜勒·拉希德(Mohammad Abdur Rashid)表示，所有23名船员安然无恙。

他补充说，两名船员将飞回孟加拉国，其他人将留在船上等待卸货结束。

SR Shipping Limited是孟加拉国航运业的重要运营商，经营远洋商船，包括阿卜杜拉号。

该船的载重吨位为45653吨，长185.74米，宽30.4米，体现了该公司对海上运输的奉献精神。

“阿卜杜拉”号及其船员的安全抵达，是克服困难的胜利，体现了海员们在公海上面对海盗威胁的勇气。

尽管当代海盗行为带来了困难，但海事界仍纪念船员与亲人团聚，并为下一次旅程做好准备。

英文原文

After an awful 31-day journey at the hands of Somali pirates, the Bangladeshi-flagged cargo vessel MV Abdullah and its 23 crew members have arrived safely at Al Hamriya Port in Dubai.

The ship’s arrival on Sunday brought an end to a terrible chapter that began on March 12 when it was hijacked in the Indian Ocean while en route from Maputo, Mozambique, to the United Arab Emirates.

According to sources, the ship arrived at the port at 4:30 p.m. (Bangladesh time), under the close surveillance of officials and maritime tracking systems such as the Marine Traffic website.

Mizanul Islam, a spokeswoman for Kabir Group, the parent company of SR Shipping and the owner of the MV Abdullah, verified the vessel’s safe arrival.

The tragedy began when Somali pirates boarded the MV Abdullah and took control of the vessel, keeping 23 crew members hostage.

The ship, loaded with 55,000 tons of coal, was then redirected to the coast of Somalia, where the pirates continued changing positions to avoid authorities.

The pirates reportedly demanded a ransom of $5 million (Tk 55 crore) during the early stages of negotiations for the crew’s release, according to a Somali news site.

The process entailed several discussions, with the ship’s owners, SR Shipping Limited, working relentlessly to ensure the crew’s safe return.

Following nearly a month of uncertainty and suspense, the crew was ultimately released on April 13.

The ship then began its journey to the United Arab Emirates, arriving at Al Hamriya Port after eight days of navigation.

Captain Mohammad Abdur Rashid stated that all 23 crew members were safe and sound.

He added that two crew members will fly back to Bangladesh, while the others will remain on board to await the end of the unloading procedure.

SR Shipping Limited, a significant operator in Bangladesh’s shipping industry, operates ocean-going merchant ships, including the MV Abdullah.

The vessel has a deadweight tonnage (DWT) of 45,653 tons and measures 185.74 meters in length and 30.4 meters in width, demonstrating the company’s dedication to maritime transit.

The safe arrival of the MV Abdullah and its crew represents a victory over difficulties and demonstrates the courage of mariners facing the dangers of piracy on the high seas.

Despite the difficulties posed by contemporary piracy, the maritime community commemorates the crew members’ reunion with their loved ones and getting ready for their next journey.
