Israel violates international law by intercepting Freedom flotilla carrying aid to Gaza
The volunteers, from France, Brazil, Spain, Sweden, Turkey, Germany, and the Netherlands, including Greta Thunberg and French-Palestinian MEP Rima Hassan, were carrying humanitarian aid to break the Israeli blockade of aid imports via sea. The “Madleen,” the British ship that was carrying them, has been captured by the IDF and the activists abducted, in order to continue its starvation of the Palestinian people.
