Gerardo di Rossa (c), the captain of Italian cruise liner Achille Lauro watches the press, on October 10, 1985, from the gangway of the ship at the end of a three-day hijacking. Achille Lauro was docked on October 10, 1985 in Port Said harbor after Egyptian authorities stopped it from sailing to the Israeli port of Ashdod. Achille Lauro was seized by a commando of the Palestine Liberation Front (PLF) of Abu Abbas who organized the hijacking off the Egyptian coast on October 07, 1985 taking its 450 passengers hostages. A handicapped Jewish-American passenger, Leon Klinghoffer, was killed by commando chief Youssef Majed al-Molqi and thrown overboard. The Achille Lauro sank in the Indian Ocean after a three-day fire in December 1994. (Photo by MAHER ATTAR / AFP)
