1First thought, there have been military actions undertaken against Somali paramilitaries that engaged in Piracy around East Africa, -- not quite the same situation, but the flag of convenience might not be the main thing, and countries will act to protect their interest on the high seas.James K– James K2023-12-03 23:15:16 +00:00Commented Dec 3, 2023 at 23:15

Pretty sure that there have been multiple regional joint anti-piracy operations. The one against Somali pirates even had China on board, IIRC. U.S. law has been clear since the 1700s that piracy against any commercial ship on the high seas is contrary to the law of nations and can be dealt with by the U.S. Navy. That's what the Tripoli reference in the Marines' Hymn is about. marineband.marines.mil/Audio-Resources/The-Marines-Hymnohwilleke– ohwilleke2023-12-05 01:27:32 +00:00Commented Dec 5, 2023 at 1:27

How to Tag
A tag is a keyword or label that categorizes your question with other, similar questions. Choose one or more (up to 5) tags that will help answerers to find and interpret your question.
- complete the sentence: my question is about...
- use tags that describe things or concepts that are essential, not incidental to your question
- favor using existing popular tags
- read the descriptions that appear below the tag
If your question is primarily about a topic for which you can't find a tag:
- combine multiple words into single-words with hyphens (e.g. united-states), up to a maximum of 35 characters
- creating new tags is a privilege; if you can't yet create a tag you need, then post this question without it, then ask the community to create it for you
