New Delhi (2 January
2011): Two Israeli warships are following the Asian
Aid Ship (Salam) to Gaza (Palestine) via Al-Arish
(Egypt), according to Feroz Mithiborewala, organiser
of the Indian contingent of the Asian Caravan now in
Damascus. The aid ship is carrying aid to be delivered
to the Egyptian authorities for checking at Al-Arish
before delivery to Gaza through the Rafah checkpoint.
Senior Indian
journalist Ajit Sahi and three other Indians are on
board in addition to Hakim from Azerbaijan, Nur el Din
from Malaysia, Mohammad Hossain from Indonesia and
Sagaguchi from Japan. They are accompanying the aid
while others will fly from Syria to Egypt to join them
later at Al-Arish.
According to reports
reaching The Milli Gazette from Damascus,
Israeli commandos have entered the aid ship by force,
inspected the material and interrogated the crew.
They left later but two Israeli warships are trailing
the ship while an Israeli helicopter is flying
overhead. Israeli commandos did not detain anyone
according to the caravan twitter handle.
