An explosion has sunk a pro-Palestinian protest vessel before it could make a bid to break the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip.
Activists on the 'Gaza Ark' program had been hoping to take Palestinian exports out of the Strip.

He told Marc Tong, the boat received a warning shortly before the explosion.
