A newly released map from The World in Maps highlights the persistent threat of maritime piracy in some of the world’s busiest shipping corridors, with the Gulf of Guinea, Horn of Africa, and the Strait of Malacca emerging as the most dangerous zones for commercial vessels during the 2019–2020 period. According to the visual data and reports from the International Maritime Bureau (IMB) and UNODC, nearly 92% of global piracy incidents were concentrated in these three regions, with escalating concerns for crew safety, cargo theft, and maritime trade disruption.
