Eight Poles abducted from a ship off the coast of Nigeria in October have been freed, Polish media reported on Tuesday.

The crew of the Pomerania Sky are safe and waiting to return to their families, public broadcaster Polish Radio’s IAR news agency reported, without saying where the sailors were.

The agency reported that the Polish foreign ministry had thanked the ship owners for their handling of the case, and the Nigerian authorities for their help.

Polish broadcaster RMF FM reported at the end of October that the crew had been abducted by pirates in motorboats who targeted the ship some 60 nautical miles off the Nigerian coast.
