Just 4 weeks later, the regime was removed and most of Iraq was under coalition control. The success of the military campaign owed much to the determination and professionalism of the coalition’s Armed Forces and the civilians who supported them. I regret that, during the course of combat operations and subsequently, a number of Service personnel lost their lives. Their sacrifice will not be forgotten. The UK is playing a full part in the re-building of Iraq through the establishment of conditions for a stable and law-abiding Iraqi government. This process will not be easy after years of repression and neglect by a brutal regime. Our Armed Forces are performing a vital and dangerous role by contributing to the creation of a secure environment so that normal life can be resumed, and by working in support of humanitarian organisations to help the Iraqi people.

This action followed on from the successful rescue by Fort Victoria of the Italian Merchant Ship, Monte Cristo in early October. It is believed the dhow was hijacked by suspected pirates so that they could use it as a base, or mothership, from which to launch attacks against merchant ships many hundreds of miles from Somalia. Throughout this time, the Pakistani crew of the dhow was held hostage on board. RFA Fort Victoria and HMS Somerset some 200 miles off the coast were tasked with closing in on the dhow. HMS Somerset’s Commanding Officer, Commander Paul Bristowe said, “The mother-ship was located by Somerset’s Merlin helicopter at first light and the boarding teams were brought to immediate notice whilst Somerset closed with the dhow”. RFA Fort Victoria is deployed as part of the North Atlantic Treaty Organisation (NATO) Ocean Shield counter piracy task force, with HMS Somerset, assigned at the time to the Combined weapons overboard as well as setting one of their Maritime Forces counter-piracy mission, Combined skiffs adrift. Despite their desperate attempts to Task Force (CTF) 151 cover their tracks, a large cache of boarding ladders, The dhow was soon surrounded by a Royal Navy weapons, a second attack skiff and equipment from and Royal Marine boarding team from RFA Fort a previously pirated ship were found onboard.

    British Ship RFA Argus Dispatched to Support Caribbean's Covid-19 Response Pdf Published On April 03, 2020 03:24 PM Staff Consortium | April 03, 2020 03:24:51 PM 0 BRIDGETOWN, Barbados, CMC – The British casualty ship RFA Argus, has set sail for the Caribbean ahead of this year’s hurricane season to assist with the response to the COVID-19 pandemic across the region. Although the vessel’s deployment to the Caribbean had been scheduled for the hurricane season, she will now be able to play a part in ensuring the UK Government is ready to support the Overseas Territories during the pandemic. As Royal Navy sailors and Royal Marines continue to stand ready to assist the United Kingdom in its efforts to defeat the pandemic at home, the support ship left Devonport on Thursday, to cross the Atlantic and head south for the Caribbean. “RFA Argus’ ship’s company, consisting of both Royal Fleet Auxiliary and Royal Navy personnel, will rise to this challenge. We understand that there are people in need in the UK Overseas Territories who require our support,” said commanding officer Captain Terence Barke On board RFA Argus are Royal Marines, Royal Fleet Auxiliary and Royal Navy sailors and aviators from 815 Naval Air Squadron and 845 Naval Air Squadron. A medical team could later join Argus in the Caribbean to support the UK Government’s contribution to responding to Covid-19 in Overseas Territories. RFA Argus has a length of 175 metres for a displacement of 18,280 tonnes and a crew complement of 80 sailors.
