💨 Abstract

Israeli naval forces intercepted a Gaza-bound ship carrying international activists, including Greta Thunberg, in international waters. The ship was carrying aid for Gaza, but Israel claims it violated their blockade. The activists were detained and face deportation. Israel argues its actions were legal under international law due to its ongoing conflict with Hamas. Legal experts debate the legality of Israel's blockade and its right to intercept ships in international waters.
