After Its attack earlier on the Freedom Flotilla convoy to Gaza, the "Israeli" Navy cut off the Rachel Corrie aid ship on its way to end the siege on Gaza.

Greta Berlin, a member of the Free Gaza group, told Reuters on Saturday that the ship was being followed.

When the "Israeli" navy conducted the cut off, the Rachel Corrie ship was 35 miles away from the besieged Gaza, where it was heading to break the siege.

No violence acts aboard the Rachel Corrie were reported, yet the activists on the ship rejected demands to unload the cargo in Ashdod port, and willed on ongoing its way to Gaza.

Aboard the ship is Nobel Peace Prizewinner, Mairead Corrigan, who said earlier that "Israel" did not contact anyone on the ship, and if it chooses to search or intercept them, passengers would not resist.

The Rachel Corrie aid ship holds almost 750 tons of humanitarian aid, hoping they would reach Gaza and its people.
