European Green Party calls flotilla interception ‘breach of international law’

The European Green Party has “strongly condemned” Israel’s interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla with all but one boat now seized. In a statement, Green’s Co-Chair Vula Tsetsi said the blocking of humanitarian aid and “silencing independent observers is unacceptable”. “It constitutes a clear breach of international law. We call on EU institutions and national governments to take immediate action to secure the safety and release of all those on board,” Tsetsi said.
