Two German Frigates arrived on Sunday in Djibouti within a caravan of three frigates which will help in naval periodical acts in the region from the Red Sea to the Gulf to support what is called the American campaign against terrorism.

News reports quoted officials at the navy as saying that the two frigates "Colonia, and Amden" arrived in the port escorted by three supply ships and al have on their docks 100 sailors.
