Islamic Jihad: Israeli attack on Freedom Flotilla piracy

The Islamic Jihad movement on Sunday said that Israel’s attack on Freedom Flotilla is “piracy” and “state terrorism”.

Islamic Jihad spokesman Daud Shehab said in a brief statement that this attack indicates that the Israeli government has no intention to lift the unjust siege imposed on the Gaza Strip.

Shehab added that Israel is violating international humanitarian law and committing a war crime against the Palestinian people of Gaza in full view of the entire world.

Israeli occupation navy earlier Sunday attacked the Freedom Flotilla vessels while they were heading to Gaza to break the siege and arrested all activists on board.
