Palestinian boat leaves Gaza port in protest over blockade

A boat carrying Palestinian students and others injured during protests, leaves a harbor in Gaza City in a bid to challenge Israel's blockade of the coastal enclave.

The Gaza Strip has been under Israeli blockade since 2007, with Israel saying it is necessary to prevent the Palestinian enclave's militant Hamas rulers from obtaining means to attack the Jewish state.
