The Israeli military has intercepted a Gaza-bound aid ship, detaining 21 international activists and journalists and seizing all cargo, including baby formula, food, and medicine, according to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition.

JERUSALEM/GAZA, July 27 (Reuters) - Israel said on Sunday it would halt military operations each day for 10 hours in parts of Gaza and allow new aid corridors in the enclave, where images of hungry Palestinians have alarmed the world.

A suspension in military activity between 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. was scheduled for Al Mawasi, Deir al Balah and Gaza City, according to Avichay Adraee, an IDF spokesperson.
