Gaza Flotilla Carried No Humanitarian Aid
(TPS-Jerusalem Post) None of the 40 vessels participating in the Global Sumud Flotilla, which Israel intercepted on Yom Kippur, was carrying humanitarian aid, according to the Israeli Foreign Ministry. The ministry also released a video by the Israel Police featuring spokesperson Dean Elsdunne showing the empty interior of one of the flotilla's largest vessels. He points out that the complete lack of aid explains why the organizers refused Israel's offers to hand over the aid. "It was never about bringing aid to Gaza. It was about the headlines and social media," he said.
