Israeli defence chief says Lebanon to be held accountable for more blockade violence

Israel's defence minister says his government will hold Lebanon accountable if more violence results from a blockade-busting ship headed for Gaza.

Defence Minister Ehud Barak told reporters Monday "we see the government of Lebanon responsible" by granting permission for another ship with activists and aid on board to embark for Cyprus on a new attempt to reach the Palestinian territory.

He said in a brief statement that as a result "there could be friction that could lead to violence, which is totally unnecessary." He declined to take questions after emerging from a meeting with U.N. chief Ban Ki-moon.
