Israel Navy Seizes Gaza-Bound Finnish Ship
(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - The Israel Navy seized the Gaza-bound ship Estelle, which was seeking to breach Israel's naval blockade on Gaza, the army's Spokesperson's Unit reported on Saturday. The soldiers did not use force while seizing the ship, which was brought to Ashdod port. An initial search found no humanitarian aid supplies aboard the ship, the IDF said. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said: "Even the people aboard the ship know that there is no humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and that their entire goal is to provoke and slander Israel. If these activists really cared about human rights, they would have sailed to Syria."
