8:09 am
to the israeli army they made it quite clear to the ship's captain and the ship's passengers that there were other legal options available to them they're all sixteen people on board the ship ten of them are passengers three of the crew three of them are journalists this is the furthest that any ship so far in this freedom for two to has been able to go in terms of being able to reach gaza now the israelis are at pains not to see a repeat of what happened last year when you had that feed into one that incident in which turkish citizens were killed when israeli commandos wanted to because they have a mob in monterrey and they simply do not want to see that happen again so the average pays to try and see this dealt with peacefully and without any kind of loss of life because many soldiers unable soldiers boarded the ship when it was some seventy kilometers away from gaza and there's no question that the ship was still in international waters it did go off without incident and is being towed to the
