The Foreign Ministry confirms that the Israeli Navy has taken over the Handala activist boat attempting to break Israel�s naval blockade of the Gaza Strip, stressing that everyone on board is safe.
The Handala boat set sail from Sicily earlier this month, weeks after Israel intercepted a different vessel that had made a high-profile attempt to reach Gaza.
The boat will be towed to Ashdod Port by the Navy, and the activists will then be deported from the country
