Abbas then spoke to Captain De Rosa; he apologized to him, saying, "We are truly sorry, because we didn't intend to hijack you, but our situation was such that we had to assume control for several hours."
ثم تحدث عباس إلى الكابتن دي روزا واعتذر له قائلا: "إننا نأسف حقا لأننا لم ننوي خطفك لكن وضعنا كان يجب أن نتحكم فيه لعدة ساعات".
