Tel Aviv, June 6 (DPA) The deportation of passengers and crew seized on board a Gaza-bound aid ship from Israel has been delayed because some of them refuse to sign waivers not to initiate legal proceedings, Israel Radio reported Sunday.
All potential deportees have been transported to Ben Gurion Airport, the report added.
The aid ship, the Rachel Corrie, was seized Saturday by Israeli Navy as it was on its way to the blockaded Gaza Strip.
The seizure, which Israel says was carried out with the full compliance of the crew and passengers, took place after the ship refused four demands to change course and sail to the Israeli port of Ashdod.
