Video claiming to show Somali pirate boat destruction is actually U.S. Navy training exercise

A video shared on social media claims to show a Somalian pirate boat being destroyed. However, this claim is false. The video actually depicts U.S. Navy training exercises from 2017, not an attack on a pirate vessel. The video features U.S. Navy sailors operating weapons systems on the USS America. It was misidentified as a recent event involving Somali pirates. In reality, a Chinese fishing vessel was recently seized by alleged Somali pirates, with up to 18 crew members onboard. This incident is separate from the video in question.
