bbc has this as breaking news, as well.
You'll note the release is in ENGLISH? I wonder who that is meant for?

Now things are starting to get interesting. I fear this could be the match to start the fuse of WW III.

Can’t really believe anything either side is saying right now.
To: tcrlaf
You don’t take over a ship with a boat.
Looks like disinformation.
To: tcrlaf
What language would you prefer? Russian—in order to inform them that they or their minion tried to seize the ship?

“You dont take over a ship with a boat. Looks like disinformation.”
It’s a Civil War. The sides are still breaking down, and people are still trying to be non-violent.
Eventually, it won’t be.

To answer you, I’ll tell you they put it in English so the French can understand it. But you can quit wondering why when you get a higher IQ. That’s why BBC does shows in English.

Yah, I would argue that the presumption is rather strong that a press release in English is intended for an English-speaking audience.

Russian Black Sea Piracy on display.
Their soldiers don’t wear identification and are illegal combatants per Geneva Convention and international law. So it comes as no surprise their sailors also mask their actions in the guise of common piracy.

From the article
Armed persons in a boat came to the ship but the crew repelled their attack.
It says they had a ship. Look again!

It’s rude and insulting to provide news about Soviet (oops, Putinista) aggression in English.
