A view of the passenger ship 'Mavi Marmara' docked in a shipyard in Istanbul, Turkey, 29 May 2011. Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief (IHH), a Turkish Islamic charity that owns the Mavi Marmara, announced that the ship will be one of those that will take part in the Freedom Flotilla II, which is preparing its second voyage to Gaza. Israeli commandos on 31 May 2010 stormed six ships carrying hundreds of pro-Palestinian activists on an aid mission to the blockaded Gaza Strip, killing at least 10 people and wounding dozens of others after encountering unexpected resistance as the forces boarded the vessels. The Mavi Marmara ship, the lead boat of a flotilla headed to the Gaza Strip which was stormed by Israeli naval commandos in a predawn confrontation in the Mediterranean May 31, 2010, returns in Istanbul, Turkey. Turkey's foreign minister Ahmet Davutoglu said Friday, May 27, 2011, he hopes Israel will avoid confrontation as a new aid flotilla prepares to depart for the Gaza Strip. In last year's Israeli raid eight Turks and one Turkish-American were killed and it sparked international outrage. Photo by TURKPIX
