Israel keeping flotilla ships until inquiry ends (AP)

FILE - In this Tuesday, June 1, 2010 file photo, Israeli port workers stand near a boat which was part of a Gaza-bound flotilla that was raided the previous day by Israeli forces, in the port of Ashdod, southern Israel. Israel says it will hold on to the six ships that sought to break an Israeli blockade of Gaza at least until it completes its investigation into a deadly raid on one of the vessels. Israel towed the six boats to port days after naval commandos stormed the ships in May, killing nine Turkish activists on board the lead vessel.
