Iranian Fars news agency reported Sunday that two Israeli Navy ships detained a ship named 'Salam' which was sailing to Gaza with intentions of getting humanitarian aid into the strip. The passengers on the ship claimed that they were detained in international waters.

A ship with eight Asian activists left Syria on Saturday. The activists are hoping to pass equipment on to Gaza strip residents through the Rafah border crossing in Egypt. (Dudi Cohen)
