The Enrico Ievoli was carrying a shipment of caustic soda from the United Arab Emirates to the Mediterranean when it was seized off the coast of Oman in an area notorious for attacks by Somali pirates.

The son of the ship's captain appealed to everyone not to ignore the plight of his father and the crew and urged authorities to act quickly to bring them home. He said it was the second time the ship had been attacked.
