Israel halts 'weapons shipment from Iran'
Israel says it has seized a ship carrying advanced Iranian weapons made in Syria that was heading towards Gaza.
The Panamanian-flagged vessel was boarded by Israeli naval commandos in the Red Sea off the coast of Sudan, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) said.
They found M-302 surface-to-surface missiles that were flown to Iran before being loaded onto the ship, it added.
Hamas, the militant Palestinian Islamist movement that governs Gaza, strenuously denied any involvement.
