Israel Raids Pro-Palestinian Ship

A ship of pro-Palestinian activists carrying aid to the Gaza Strip was boarded Saturday morning by Israeli military forces. Although the ship, the Estelle, was intending to breach Israel's naval blockade on the area, the attack took place in international waters. The Estelle is the latest in a series of ships attempting to break the blockade in the Freedom Flotilla movement. There are 17 activists aboard the ship, with passengers and crew from the U.S., Canada, Israel, Sweden, and others.
