Israeli cruise ship rerouted after Gaza war protest on Greek island – video
A cruise liner carrying Israeli tourists has been forced to reroute to Cyprus after being turned away from the Greek island of Syros due to safety concerns. The cruise liner was met with a protest involving more than 300 people over the war in Gaza at the island's port. Around 1,600 Israeli passengers on board the Crown Iris were prevented from disembarking. Some passengers on the vessel reacted by raising Israeli flags and chanting patriotic slogans, eyewitnesses said.
