Israeli War Ships approaching Freedom Flotilla to Gaza in international![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() In the last hour two of the boats in The Freedom Flotilla (the Turkish IHH ship and Free Gaza's Challenger 2) have been approached and contacted by Israeli Navy ships in international waters. Three Israeli war ships are currently approaching the Freedom Flotilla 90 miles off the coast of Gaza. The Freedom Flotilla which is carrying humanitarian aid to the beleagured coastal strip has approximately 800 passengers on board it's ships including a number of Irish people. Fears of a night time attack have now become a reality. Earlier today unmanned drones were seen in the sky above the flotilla. Israel has vowed to divert the ships to Ashdod, by force if necessary, where all Israeli participants will be arrested, Palestinians will be questioned by Israeli secret police and internationals will be deported or held in a detention centre if they refuse deportation. If Israel attacks the flotilla in international waters it will be in clear breach of international law. |
