Afghan Voice Agency (AVA) - International Service: The Samood flotilla announced that the Israeli Navy seized the last remaining ship of the Gaza aid flotilla this morning.
According to Al Jazeera, news sources reported that the Israeli army seized the last ship of the Samood flotilla.
Activists on board the Marinette, which was sailing with the Samood flotilla as part of an effort to break the blockade of Gaza, said that an Israeli warship had blocked their path.
The Israeli Radio and Television Organization announced that the regime's navy had taken control of the Marinette, the last ship of the Samood flotilla, an hour ago.
The Samood flotilla announced: The Israeli navy seized the last remaining ship of the Gaza aid flotilla this morning. The Israeli navy has seized all the ships of the flotilla.
This is while the Israeli Foreign Ministry announced last night that all but one of the ships had been seized and that their passengers were on their way to be expelled from occupied Palestine, and only one vessel remained far from Gaza.
Samood Fleet: One of our ships managed to break the naval blockade
Also, one of the organizers of the "Global Sustainability Fleet" (Al-Samood) announced on Friday morning that the fleet had succeeded in breaking the naval blockade of the Gaza Strip, adding: "The mission of the fleet has been accomplished and the blockade has been broken."
"After a large gathering of 50 ships, Israeli forces stopped it at a distance of 120 nautical miles," Ramadan Tunç, one of the organizers of the Global Sustainability Fleet, told Sputnik. "As a result of the clash, Israeli forces seized some of our ships and arrested the participants."
"However, despite the seizure of most of the ships by Israel, one ship managed to reach the Gaza coast and fulfill its mission to challenge the blockade," Tunç continued.
Transfer of 450 activists of the flotilla to an Israeli torture center
It is also said that the Zionist regime has transferred the activists of the Samood flotilla to the Ketziyot prison, which is known as the regime’s torture center.
450 members of the global “Samod” flotilla were forcibly detained by the Israeli occupying forces in international waters on Wednesday night.
According to media reports and journalists, the Zionist regime has now planned to transfer these activists to the Ketziyot prison, one of the Israeli prisons that is notoriously known as a torture center.
The prison, located in the Negev Desert and on the Egyptian border, has long been known as a prison where systematic torture, ill-treatment and inhumane conditions against Palestinian prisoners occur.
Some reports on social media indicate that Israeli authorities have decided to return to their countries those activists from the Samood flotilla who signed the deportation papers.
Earlier, Israeli media confirmed that hundreds of activists on board the ships had been transferred to the port of Ashdod to be deported from the occupied territories either voluntarily or by court order.
The “Global Sustainability Flotilla,” consisting of approximately 50 ships carrying more than 500 activists from 40 countries, set out in early September to deliver humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip, which is experiencing an unprecedented humanitarian catastrophe, with the death toll exceeding 66,000 Palestinians and more than 168,000 injured.
