BBC: UN-chartered ferry turned back by Israeli Navy
It was going in to Tyre, to pick up UN dependents, and any other foreign nationals they could take. But the Israeli navy said it didn't have the proper clearance. So they're stuck in a war zone for at least another day.

Video report from BBC's Jim Muir "Britons trapped in southern Lebanon" here:

1. Perhaps now Israel knows where this boat is
AND WON'T BOMB IT?? Please.

2. You wouldn't think it would be that difficult
for the UN to get clearance. I guess you would be wrong.
