The detained crew of the Gaza-bound aid ship that was intercepted by Israel on Monday morning has been taken to the Israeli port of Ashdod, according to Israel’s foreign ministry.

Israel said the passengers would return to their home countries and the aid would be delivered to Gaza through established channels.

A Gaza-bound boat carrying Greta Thunberg and other international activists was intercepted by Israeli forces in international waters. The group was attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians as part of a protest flotilla.
