Francesca Albanese posted a further statement 45 minutes ago, calling on the UK government to intervene:

“As the Madleen was reportedly intercepted and seized by Israeli forces in international waters, the UK government must urgently seek full clarification and secure the immediate release of the vessel and its crew.

The Madleen must be allowed to continue its lawful humanitarian mission to Gaza.”

The interception comes amid growing international scrutiny of Israel’s actions in Gaza. The International Criminal Court (ICC) has issued arrest warrants for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and Defence Minister Yoav Gallant for alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity. The ICJ is simultaneously investigating the State of Israel under the Genocide Convention.

May God protect the Madleen & its crew. Why are there not protectors??! Where are the countries who denounce Israel’s war crimes? Please hold Israel to account — this travesty has been going on far too long.

I called both of my US senators and left a message demanding that they speak out, because silence is complicity.

Don't be surprised if the Israelis "find" weapons among the humanitarian aid.

International piracy.

But protected by America.

Look, it an Israeli-American Genocide and both are determined to continue the Slaughter and Starvation of all the remaining two million people in Gaza.

Neither Israel or America have an upper limit of Slaughter beyond which they will not go.

Some US senators want to nuke Gaza, and Israel would already have nuked Gaza if it wasn't so close, and would suffer from the fallout.

That is why Netanyahu wants to attack Iran. He intends to use several nukes on Iran.

Israel will destroy Iran, but Iran will destroy Israel, and every American base in the Middle East.
