Greta #Thunberg was due to be on humanitarian aid ship attacked by suspected #Israeli drones while it was in international waters.

“I was part of the group who was supposed to board that boat today to continue the voyage towards Gaza, which is one of many attempts to open up a humanitarian corridor and to do our part to keep trying to break #Israel’s illegal siege on #Gaza,”

Freedom Flotilla Coalition claims Israel to blame for attack on unarmed civilian vessel in international waters

@JugglingWithEggs

I'm not a lawyer but I'm sure attacking an unarmed ship is illegal by international law & I'm sure that attacking in International Waters is also Illegal.

So I suggest if any member of the serving Israeli government or any member of the Israeli Defence Force, ever steps foot in any of the 125 countries of the world who belong to the ICC they need to be arrested instantly!
This is true for US politicians who have helped Israel commit the Genocide.

The narrative I have seen in Israeli news is that the Freedom Flotilla was registered to Palau and this is also stated on Wikipedia:

But Israeli news is claiming at an unspecified time before the attack, that nation removed the right for the ship to sail under its flag…implying illegality on Freedom Flotilla.

@Mor696

Bombing an unarmed ship in international waters still seems unquestionably the real crime here, regardless of where or whether that ship was registered.

But how will it play out in the mainstream media, if at all?

@JugglingWithEggs

Ya I don't know if it will even be a blip in the media.

And Fox news will make up some lie like it was carrying weapons for Hamas or some other BS
