The BBC has a strange story about aid workers trying to force a Captain to take the ship to Gaza.
The BBC article includes a lot of quotes from the "aid workers" who are lamenting they are being held at gunpoint, is unclear to what happened, but this Turkish newspaper says bluntly that they tried to hijack the ship.
probably a dispute about pay, but I guess if you are a "human rights activist" from the UK, you think you are above the law, and don't have to do silly things like pay the captain and the ship owner.
