Israeli prosecutors petition court to confiscate 50 Sumud Flotilla vessels
Israeli prosecutors on Monday petitioned the court to confiscate 50 vessels that attempted to breach Israel’s illegal naval blockade of Gaza, which led to mass starvation in the enclave, local media reported.
The Global Sumud Flotilla set sail in August and included dozens of vessels and hundreds of activists from multiple countries. Israel’s navy intercepted the flotilla in early October, detaining more than 400 activists, parliamentarians and lawyers.
Activists on the flotilla said that they had suffered mistreatment and violation of their rights by Israeli authorities.
