Israel diverts Gaza aid ship Rachel Corrie to Ashdod
http://news.bbc.co.uk/2/hi/world/middle_east/10245176.stm

An aid ship intercepted by the Israeli military while trying to break the blockade of Gaza has arrived in the Israeli port of Ashdod.

Israel says its soldiers boarded the Irish-owned Rachel Corrie from the sea and did not meet any resistance.

There has been no word from those on board, who include several activists.

The incident comes five days after nine people were killed in clashes when troops boarded a Turkish aid ship, prompting international criticism.
