Greenpeace protesters board Gulf-bound ship
Greenpeace protesters have boarded a military supply ship in an anti-war protest.
Five campaigners from the conservation group have managed to get aboard the MV Lyra while at anchor in the Solent off Southampton.
The Lyra was awaiting a pilot to take her into Marchwood Military Port on Southampton Water when the protesters got on to the ship and set up a "peace camp" at the stern of the vessel.
The Greenpeace ship Rainbow Warrior is also at the scene.
The Lyra is carrying military vehicles on its decks for possible deployment to Iraq but Greenpeace said they did not know what was in her hold.
"This is part of Greenpeace's global campaign to prevent a military attack on Iraq which will kill thousands of civilians. This war is not justified," the spokesman said.
The protesters were hosed with water by the crew of the ship and a police launch was at the scene, Greenpeace said.
WHY RUIN THEIR FUN?

"Stage handler Ube Evans, 50, originally from Hay-on-Wye, said:
"Somebody's got to save humanity from themselves. I'm very scared. The whole point of being a human shield is that we can change public and world opinion."
Joe Letts, of Shaftesbury, Dorset, a bus operator who organised the transport and is also taking part in the project, said they expected thousands to join them as they travelled through Europe and he hoped the public would show their support.
The journey is expected to take around two weeks and if war did break out before they arrived Mr Letts said they would "drive into the conflict".
