Israeli naval forces board pro-Palestinian flotilla 75 miles from Gaza | Gaza flotilla

While the ships tried to violate and help the sea blockade of the region where the war diaped, the Israeli forces rode a series of boats by Israeli forces, about 75 miles away from the shores of Gaza.

The raid began on Wednesday with the leading vessel of the fleet detained by Israeli soldiers on Wednesday. A video from the Israeli Foreign Ministry showed the leading of fleet passengers on a deck surrounded by Swedish climate campaignist Greta Thunberg.

From the beginning of Thursday, a total of 13 boats were caught or stopped according to the fleet’s own ship monitoring data, but the organizers added that the remaining ships would continue to be intercitable ”and that they were 46 naval miles (85km) away from their targets.

“My name is Greta Thunberg. I am on the buying ship. We are about to be captured by Israel.” He said.

Thunberg was arrested with other activists in Alma and was detained at the port of Ashdod in Israel.

The global Sumud Flotilla, which consists of more than 40 civilian boats carrying approximately 500 parliamentary, lawyers and activists, including Thunberg, was going to bring humanitarian aid despite repeated warnings to return from Israel.

The Fleet revealed several videos in the telegram with messages from individuals from various boats, some of them showed a few videos that hold their passports against their will to Israel and reiterate that their duties were a non -violent humanitarian reason.

In the afternoon, when the interventions began and entered into those who were described as “danger zone” or “high -risk zone ,, they sailed in international waters in the north of Egypt.

While still in international waters, the Israeli Navy has stopped other boats trying to break the blockade in the past and warned that the fleet does not pass.

Activists on social media, around 19.25, approximately 20 Israeli sea ships approached the fleet and ordered boats to close their engines. Live images from Flotilya, passengers sitting in the semi -circle, waiting for the intervention showed that wearing a life jacket. The broadcast was cut soon.

A message on Fleet’s Instagram page Wednesday evening, “Our ships are illegally captured,” he said. “The cameras were actively working to verify the security and status of all participants on board.”

Images published by Sky Italia showed that the activists on the deck were shot by strong water jets. On the ship, they said they felt an explosion loud near a few boats that were believed to fall from the drones.

The inspectors were verified by the Israeli Foreign Ministry: “The Israeli navy reached Gaza Aid Flotilla and asked them to change the way to Ashdod Port, where help could be evacuated and transferred to the Gaza Strip.”

The navy of Israel had previously warned that he had previously approached an active battle zone and had violated what he said was a legal blockade and asked them to change the route. He offered to Gaza peacefully transferring any aid through secure channels and rejected tasks as a stunt.

The Italian Foreign Minister said on Wednesday that his Israeli colleague is sure that IDF will not use violence against the activists in the fleet.

“The boarding is planned, we talk about it … [the Israeli foreign minister, Gideon Sa’ar] So Tel Aviv would not be a violent action in the Armed Forces section, and it was guaranteed to me, Antonio Tajani said to the Italian TV publisher Rai.

“We will probably be taken to our Embassy in Tel Aviv and our Consulate in Jerusalem, but we instructed all the Italians to be fired later,” he added.

After the Israeli navy forces boarded the boats, thousands of people went to the streets in Italy with demonstrations in Bari, Bologna, Genoa, Milan, Naples, Pisa and Rome.

The Italian unions called for a general strike to support Palestine on Friday.

The Israeli government accused some fleet members of being linked to Hamas while offering any evidence to support the claim. The activists strongly rejected the charges and said that Israel was trying to justify potential attacks on them.

The European governments, including Spain and Italy, had sent navy ships to accompany the fleets during a part of his journey, and called for activists to return and avoid confrontation.

However, Italy’s Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni said that the actions of the fleets were at risk of weakening Donald Trump’s proposal to solve the war in Gaza, and defended the initiative of the Spanish Prime Minister.

Pedro Sánchez told journalists on Wednesday, saying, “We should remember that if the Israeli government allows the entry of help, it is a humanitarian task that will not happen.” The authority added that the participating Spaniards will benefit from full diplomatic protection.

The group, if not disturbed, a month ago began a journey from the port of Spanish Barcelona Fleet, Thursday morning until the Gaza coast to reach the shores, he said.

Marine blockage was implemented by Israel in 2009, which is intensifying the 2007 Gaza blockade in response to Hamas’s control of the region. It has been condemned many times by the UN many times called “International Human Rights and Human Law directly contrary to.

Yuval Shany, an international law expert at Hebrew University in Jerusalem, said that Israel’s Gaza blockade is “military right – – to keep the weapons away – and the ship aims to break the siege, said that Israel could block the ship after the previous warning.

Whether the blockade is military right and legality is the points of discussion.

However, the fleet argues that it is a civilian, unarmed group and that the passage of humanitarian aid is guaranteed in international law. The previous activist attempts to break the sea blockade in Gaza were forcibly stopped by the Israeli army.

In 2010, 10 Turkish activists were killed by Israeli commandos raided the Mavi Marmara ship.
