CNN. A Libyan-backed ship carrying humanitarian goods for Gaza docked at Al Arish in northern Egypt on Thursday morning, the Egyptian foreign ministry said.
The vessel, which sailed from Greece on Saturday carrying 2,000 tons of aid, was the latest ship attempting to breach an Israeli naval blockade of the Palestinian territory of Gaza.
Israel says it must inspect all goods that enter Gaza so that weapons do not get into the hands of militants. Gaza is run by Hamas, the Palestinian Islamist movement that has said it is dedicated to the destruction of Israel.
The Gadhafi Foundation, a charity headed by the son of Libyan leader Moammar Gadhafi, refers to the ship as the Hope, although it appears to be registered as the MV Amalthea. It is Moldovan-flagged and run by ACA Shipping, based in Greece.
Israel came under fierce international criticism after nine people died in the course of boarding a Gaza-bound Turkish aid ship in May.
Israel said the activists on that ship attacked its troops when they boarded the boat.
The Israeli assault on the Turkish ship reverberated internationally and shined light on the Gaza blockade.
Israel has resisted demands for an international inquiry into the incident, but an Israeli military investigation conducted into the boarding of the Mavi Marmara criticized some aspects of the operation.
