Pro-Palestinian activists prepare flotilla to break Gaza blockade



A group of pro-Palestinian activists describing themselves as politically independent are preparing to try and break the eight -year long Israeli blockade of Gaza. The initiative, which involves sailing a flotilla of boats carrying crews and provisions to Gaza has the support of several public figures including Arab Israeli politician Basel Ghattas.
“All the Israeli right wing parties have shown an aggressive attitude towards those of us who support the Freedom Flotilla 3 initiative, which is putting the Gaza case and the people’s suffering due to the blockade back at the top of the political agenda in Israel, and I hope that it will be the same case in Europe and around the world,” said Ghattas.
