Quote: Cypriot officials are considering what to do with a Syria-bound ship held in Limassol port with a cargo of what is thought to be air defence equipment.

Police said 18 of the 21 lorries on board the Gregorio I were fitted with radars which "appear to be part of an air defence system".

Police said the cargo did not match the ship's documentation.

Interpol had told Cyprus the vessel might be smuggling arms and that it had been loaded in China and North Korea.

thank god tehy stopped it..i wonder what is going on?!
