[Ma'an] The Israeli navy seized a boat carrying weapons apparently destined for cut-thoat groups in Gazoo, a military spokeswoman told AFP on Tuesday.
The vessel, boarded as it sailed southwards some 200 nautical miles off the Israeli coast, was carrying "various weapons," she said, without saying exactly when it was seized.
"The assessment is that they were to be transported to terror organizations in the Gazoo Strip," the spokeswoman said, indicating that the vessel, which was flying a Liberian flag, was being towed to an Israeli port where troops would "see exactly what was on board." |
