Israel seizes control of boat in Gaza blockade protest May 29, 2018 at 09:33PM

Israeli forces stopped and seized a Palestinian protest boat Tuesday, the army said, as those aboard sought to demonstrate against the Jewish state's blockade of Gaza. The incident occurred amid high tensions in the Gaza Strip after militants fired some 28 mortars in the direction of Israel, whose military retaliated by hitting dozens of targets. The boat, carrying sick Gazans and those unable to find work, was stopped by Israeli forces several miles out at sea.
