Palestinians inspect the Gaza's Ark, a Palestinian-built protest boat which was preparing to run Israel's naval blockade, after it was damaged in an explosion at the port in Gaza City, on April 29, 2014. The blast occurred at around 3:45am (00045 GMT) and was preceded by an anonymous phonecall warning the guard that the vessel was about to be blown up, organisers said. The vessel, a large fishing vessel which was preparing to take to the seas in a bid to break the blockade in June, sustained major damage and sunk to the ocean bed in the shallow waters of the port, leaving three-quarters of it submerged.
