JERUSALEM (AFP) Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu called UN chief Ban Ki-moon on Friday and asked him to stop an international flotilla of ships seeking to break Israel's Gaza blockade, Netanyahu's office said.
The May sailing of about 15 ships with activists from 25 countries on board is intended to mark the first anniversary of an Israeli commando raid against a similar, but smaller, convoy that killed nine Turkish activists, organisers have said.
