A Chronology of Terrorist Attacks and Other Criminal Actions Against Maritime Targets, September 1983 RAND Study

Background

As part of its continuing research on subnational conflict, The Rand Corporation has compiled a number of chronologies of terrorist and related criminal activity. A reflection of increased concern that terrorists will turn their attention to maritime targets, we have received numerous requests for our list of incidents involving harbors, offshore platforms, and ships at sea.

It is certain that the following chronology does not include all incidents that have taken place. Some events are not reported and exchange of information is limited. We would, of course, welcome information about further incidents or activity.
