This morning three Turkish tug boats arrived at the Israeli coast.
The Israeli Foreign Ministry said in a message to the Turkish authorities that it hopes that the Turkish vessels will not attempt to break the blockade of Gaza in future.
The ‘Freedom Flotilla’, carrying humanitarian cargo and a human rights activist delegation, was captured by Israeli naval forces in the Mediterranean on the night of 30-31 May. 9 Turkish crew members were killed and dozens of people were injured, hundreds were arrested and then deported. 7 Israeli commandos were also injured by the crew of the ‘Freedom Flotilla’.
