ISTANBUL, Oct 2 (Bernama-AA) -- Israeli forces rammed a vessel belonging to the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla, deployed water cannons against the fleet and mistreated its activists, Anadolu Ajansi reported.
“The Israeli occupation is using violence against our ships, deliberately ramming one of them, deploying water cannons, and brutally mistreating peaceful detainees from 50 countries around the world,” the International Committee for Breaking the Siege on Gaza said on X.
The organisers called for urgent international intervention, warning that “governments must act, as peoples across world capitals are rising in anger.”
The flotilla, loaded mainly with humanitarian aid and medical supplies, set sail at the end of August and was expected to reach Gaza’s coast Thursday morning under normal circumstances.
