REFILE - ADDING ADDITIONAL INFO ON SACKS OF POLYETHELENE Munitions are displayed in front of white sacks of polyethelene, which the Israeli military said were used in a bid to hide the weaponry, at the port of Ashdod November 4, 2009. According to the military the arms were found on the Antigua-flagged Francop vessel, intercepted overnight in the Mediterranean Sea, 100 miles (160 km) from Israel. Israeli naval commandos seized a ship carrying hundreds of tonnes of Iranian-supplied arms, including rockets that can hit Israeli cities, to Lebanon's Hezbollah group, Israeli officials said on Wednesday.
