Since August 2008, the Free Gaza Movement has sailed a number of voyages to Gaza. Today the latest voyage was intercepted by the Israeli navy.
The WitnessGAZA website has been tracking the progress of the flotilla as it travels across the Mediterranean Sea using Google Maps. The interception point has been marked on the map with a red map marker.
As well as the Google Map used to track the flotilla the WitnessGAZA website includes embedded videos taken during the voyage.
Update
Tragically when Israeli commandos boarded the Free Gaza Flotilla overnight more than 10 people were killed.
Israel says its soldiers were shot at and attacked with bars and knives.
Audrey Bomse, a spokesperson for the Free Gaza Movement says there was "absolutely no evidence of live fire" from the flotilla.

i like your website. i don't like when it gets political.
Hi Anonymous,
I'm sorry you feel that way.
In this case I reported on the use of a Google Map that is definitely being used politically.
However I tried not to comment on the rightness or wrongness of the Free Gaza Flotilla.
I'm sure you can and will make your own mind up about that.

God forbid one would have an opinion on such things.
