We refer to these publications to avoid repeating the methodology used. We aim to update existing knowledge about the attacks perpetrated in 2012 and 2013, the last complete year in which we have all the available data. We will also analyse the evolution of the situation and the modus operandi of the pirates. From 2008 to 2010, Somali pirates hijacked around 50 ships per year on average. Since then, a downward trend has been observed, with the seizure of 16 vessels in 2012 and only two in 2013. Despite managing over 300 attacks in 2011, in 2012, the numbers fell to 105, and in 2013 to 45.
