LISBON (Reuters) - The merchant ship Arctic Sea, missing for more than a week, is in international waters in the Atlantic about 400 miles north of the Cape Verde islands, Portugal's Lusa news agency reported on Friday.
Quoting the director-general of defence of Cape Verde, Pedro Reis, Lusa said the ship was north of the islands.
"The ship is located at a distance of 400 nautical miles north of Sao Vicente, outside Cape Verde's exclusive economic zone," Reis was quoted as saying. Lusa gave no further details.
