Background
The Singapore Strait is a very busy international shipping lane where incidents of robbery and boarding by small boats occasionally occur. Attacks are often opportunistic and can involve fast craft approaching anchored or slow-moving vessels. Regional authorities and naval patrols sometimes respond, and warnings like this aim to alert nearby traffic to avoid the immediate area and increase vigilance. Mariners transiting the strait should follow anti-piracy precautions and report suspicious activity to local authorities.
