Libyan Aid Ship Heads to Egypt After Being Blocked from Gaza Strip
------------------------------------------------------------------



The Israeli military has reportedly blocked a Libyan aid ship from
reaching the Gaza Strip. The ship set sail from Greece last week
carrying over 2,000 tons of aid in an attempt to break the Israeli naval
blockade. But as many as eight Israeli vessels have surrounded it as it
approached Gaza. According to reports, the ship is now headed to the
Egyptian port of El Arish.
