Israel Turns Back Libyan Ship Headed for Gaza
[AFP] A Libyan cargo vessel headed for Gaza was stopped several miles off Gaza's shores on Monday. "Navy ships approached the Libyan boat and ordered it on the radio to turn back, and so it did," Israeli Foreign Ministry spokesman Yigal Palmor said. "Anyone wishing to transfer humanitarian aid into Gaza is welcome to do it in coordination with Israel and through the regular crossings. They can also contact Egypt."
