Gaza aid flotilla 'leaves Cyprus'
A flotilla of ships trying to deliver aid to Palestinians in Gaza has left the coast of Cyprus, according to organisers.
The boats, carrying around 10,000 tonnes of aid, will attempt to break Israel's three-year blockade of Gaza.
But Israel says it has authorised its navy to use limited force on the flotilla, and that it plans to deport those involved in the flotilla.
Jon Donnison reports from Gaza City.
