Martin in new call for restraint from Israelis

Minister for Foreign Affairs Micheál Martin has once again demanded Israeli Authorities to show restraint in dealing with the crew of an Irish Aid vessel on its way to Gaza.

Mr Martin says he has tabled an agreement whereby the cargo from the Rachel Corrie would be unloaded at the Israeli port of Ashdod under the supervision of Israeli, UN and Irish authorities, and then transported on to Gaza.
