    Cliff Notes

    • South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa condemned Israel’s interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla as a breach of global solidarity, demanding the release of detained South Africans, including Nelson Mandela’s grandson.

    • The Palestinian foreign ministry labelled the interception a violation of international law, emphasising that Israel lacks authority over Palestinian territorial waters.

    • Global leaders, including Colombia’s President Gustavo Petro and Malaysia’s Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim, condemned the action, highlighting the humanitarian mission and calling for an end to the blockade and humanitarian crisis in Gaza.

    Gaza Latest: Protests Erupt Around World After Israel Detains Greta Thunberg on Aid Flotilla | World News

    .

    South Africa’s President
    Cyril Ramaphosa
     

    Israel’s interception of
    the Global Sumud Flotilla was a “grave offence” against “global
    solidarity and sentiment that is aimed at relieving suffering in
    Gaza”.

    Ramaphosa called on Israel to immediately
    release South Africans and others,
    including liberation hero Nelson Mandela’s grandson, Nkosi
    Zwelivelile Mandela. 

    Palestinian foreign ministry

    A Palestinian foreign ministry spokesperson condemned the interception of the flotilla as a violation of international law, asserting that Israel had neither authority nor sovereignty over Palestinian “territorial waters”.

    Colombian President Gustavo Petro

    “If this information is true, there is a new international
    crime by Netanyahu.”

    Malaysian Prime Minister Anwar Ibrahim

    “By blocking a humanitarian mission, Israel has shown utter contempt not only for the rights of the Palestinian people but also for the conscience of the world. 

    “The flotilla embodies solidarity, compassion and the hope of relief for those under blockade.”

    He said there were 23 Malaysians aboard.

    Pakistani Prime Minister Shehbaz Sharif

    “Pakistan strongly condemns the dastardly attack by Israeli forces on the 40-vessel Sumud Gaza flotilla.

    “This barbarity must end. Peace must be given a chance and humanitarian aid must reach those in need.”

    British foreign office

    “The aid carried by the flotilla should be turned over to humanitarian organisations on the ground to be delivered safely into Gaza.

    “It is the responsibility of the Israeli government to resolve the atrocious humanitarian crisis in Gaza.”
