"A civilian ship carrying aid to #Palestinians in Gaza was intercepted by the Israeli military in international waters on Saturday, the #FreedomFlotillaCoalition confirmed.
"The #HandalaFlotilla was carrying baby formula, diapers, food, and medicine. The passengers were detained and the cargo was seized. The coalition said the boat was intercepted 'in international waters outside Palestinian territorial waters off Gaza, in violation of international maritime law.'
" 'Israel has no legal authority to detain international civilians aboard the Handala,' Ann Wright, a member of the #FreedomFlotilla’s steering committee, said in a statement. 'This is not a matter of internal Israeli jurisdiction. These are foreign nationals operating under international law in international waters. Their detention is arbitrary, unlawful, and must end.'
"This week, the United Nations’ World Food Program said the famine in Gaza has reached 'new and astonishing levels of desperation, with a third of the population not eating for multiple days in a row.' According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, there have been 40 hunger-related deaths this month.
"More than 100 aid agencies and rights groups have warned of a '#MassStarvation' across Gaza."
