Israeli Defense Minister Yisrael Katz announced on Sunday that it had ordered the army to prevent the arrival of a humanitarian aid ship with activists, including Swedish Greta Thonberg, to the war, which was destroyed by the war.
“I was given instructions to the army to prevent the ship, Madeleine, from reaching Gaza. To the anti -Semitic and its comrades, advertising interlocutors (movement) Hamas, I say clearly: return your drawers because you will not reach Gaza,” Katz said in a statement issued by his office.
On Saturday, the organizers of the ship’s flight with aid, with 12 activists, announced, on Saturday, that they had arrived in front of the Egyptian coast on its way to the Gaza Strip.
On Sunday, the ship of the “Freedom Fleet” from Sicily sailed, heading to Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid and “break the Israeli siege” and highlight the continuous suffering in the Palestinian sector, which the United Nations says that all its inhabitants are threatened with famine.
“The State of Israel will not allow anyone to break the maritime blockade of Gaza, which mainly aims to prevent the transfer of weapons to Hamas, the deadly terrorist organization that holds our hostages and committed war crimes.”
He stressed that “Israel will move against any attempt to break the siege, or to help terrorist organizations, by sea, air, or land.”
