Dutch forces on a NATO warship captured seven pirates on Saturday after the hijackers attacked a Marshall Islands-flagged tanker in the Gulf of Aden with rifles and grenades, NATO officials said.

The officials said a Dutch frigate responded to the attack on the MT Handytankers Magic, which they said was managed by Roxana Shipping SA of Greece. They said an unexploded rocket-propelled grenade was later found on board the tanker.
