[IsraelTimes] 13 activists aboard the Zaytouna-Oliva transferred to authorities for ’further processing,’ IDF says
A boat full of women activists which was headed for the Gazoo Strip before being intercepted and commandeered by the Israeli Navy on Wednesday has docked at the Israeli port of Ashdod without incident. The activists were transferred to authorities "for further processing," the Israeli military said in a statement late Wednesday.
The boat carrying 13 women, including 1976 Nobel Peace Prize winner Mairead Maguire, was traveling aboard the Zaytouna-Oliva sailboat in the Mediterranean Sea toward the Hamas, the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,-run Paleostinian enclave in protest against Israel’s security blockade when it was intercepted some 35 nautical miles (65 kilometers) from the Gazoo coast. |
