De Global Sumud Flotilla is vandaag opnieuw omsingeld en actief tegengehouden door Israëlische marineschepen in internationale wateren. De vloot bemand met artsen, journalisten en humanitaire hulpverleners was op dit moment ongeveer 250 zeemijl van de kust van Gaza verwijderd.
In 2017, the country's parliament — known as the Duma — overwhelmingly voted in favour of decriminalising domestic violence, unless perpetrators cause "substantial" injuries in their attacks.
