By Crispian Balmer and Yomna Ehab JERUSALEM (Reuters) -Israeli forces have taken command of a charity vessel that had tried to break a naval blockade of the Gaza Strip and the boat with its crew of 12 including activist Greta Thunberg is now heading to a port in Israel,

Organizers accused Israel of abducting the crew. Israel's government said those aboard the "selfie yacht" were unharmed.

The Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) has said the Israeli military has boarded its Gaza-bound aid ship carrying Greta Thunberg and that communication with the boat has been lost.
