(Ha'aretz) Liel Kyzer and Yair Ettinger - The Turkish-flagged Mavi Marmara was the last of the six-ship flotilla to be towed into Ashdod port on Monday, and its 600 passengers were kept on board while Israel Police sappers conducted a thorough examination of the vessel.

Israel has said it will deport the 700 activists in the flotilla. But those who refuse to cooperate will be jailed.
