Japanese oil tanker Takayama sails outside Yemen's southern port of Aden April 22, 2008. The ship was fired on in the Gulf of Aden, off Yemen on Monday, owner Nippon Yusen KK said, with Japanese media reporting the ship was hit by a rocket in the pirate-infested region. None of the 23 crew on board the Takayama were injured and the tanker was capable of continuing its voyage, Nippon Yusen spokesman Satoshi Yokoyama said. REUTERS/Khaled Abdullah (YEMEN)
