Today in Labor History May 31, 2010: Israeli commandos boarded the Turkish ship MV Mavi Marmara, part of a six-boat Gaza Freedom Flotilla, while it was in international waters, and killed ten Turkish civilians, a few of whom may have been armed with metal bars and knives. The flotilla had been organized by the Free Gaza Movement and the Turkish Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief (İHH). They were carrying humanitarian aid and construction materials to aid Gazans, living under an Israeli-Egyptian blockade of Gaza. The United Nations Human Rights Commission (UNHRC) concluded that six of the deaths had been summary executions. Israeli commandos boarded the other five ships, too, where activists employed passive resistance without any violent deaths.

A UNHRC report deemed the Israeli blockade of Gaza illegal. In 2013, Israel's prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu apologized to Turkey's prime minister Recep Tayyip Erdoğan and offered $20 million in compensation. The Freedom Flotilla was the ninth attempt by activists to break the blockade of Gaza.

The Israeli blockade of Gaza began in 2010, in response to the Hamas election victory in 2007. It lasted the entire twelve years until the events of October 7, 2022, when Israel tightened the blockade further and initiated the final stages of their genocide. During the periods of total closure, Israel completely banned all movement of people or goods between Gaza and Israel, the West Bank, and foreign markets, including neighboring Egypt. The world Bank estimates that in 1996, alone, the blockade caused Gaza to lose 40% of its GNP.

🗨️ Thanks for the screenshot!

From this statement - issued by the office of the ''government of an artistic installation dedicated to mass murder'', one can deduce the following:

Our world and theirs are not congruent; regarding #internationallaw: they run parallel to one another, meeting only at infinity -

Since no one ever reaches that point, there is no #twostatesolution ; either one fights for #justice for the victims of #genocide in #palestine, or one is a perpetrator /SV

Please don’t hesitate to donate. Even a small amount can feed us, keep us warm, and ease the pain of an entire family.

Every day we wonder how we will afford food, clean water, and my mother’s medical treatment that cannot be delayed.
I try to stay strong, but the pressure is becoming heavier than I can handle.

Dear friends,
We have been suffering for nearly three years, and with the extreme summer heat, our living conditions have become unbearable.
No electricity, no water, no ventilation, and no proper summer clothing. Insects and rodents surround us, and our hardship continues.
Your support truly makes a difference. Please share our story.
We urgently need $320 to pay our monthly rent.
Together, we can help our family live with dignity.

Good morning, We need $350 to pay our university fees before the end of this month. With your generosity, we can cover the amount before reaching the limit.
...
Although my campaign link is my only source of income and the only way I can continue my studies, and all donations go directly to me, I haven't received any donations through my new campaign link in the last 12 days. The biggest problem is that I need $350 to complete my university tuition before the end of this month.
...
Since entering university, I've spent all donation money on university. The funny thing is, the donations are so low that I'll have to drop out and my life will be ruined. Please share my tweets and let the world hear my voice. Education is like health.

A report by Physicians for Human Rights said the use of solitary confinement against Palestinian detainees has sharply increased, especially since October 2023, with children and women increasingly subjected to prolonged isolation.
The report said the escalation comes alongside worsening detention conditions, including starvation and abuse, with isolation being used as an ongoing tool of psychological pressure.
Experts also warned of severe long-term psychological effects on minors amid the continued expansion of arrest and isolation policies in Israeli prisons.

They even besieged the sea, turning ships of hope into prisons! They arrest the world's free people in international waters simply because they refused to starve and exterminate us. Here, from the darkness of the siege in Gaza, we see in them the last pulse of humanity breaking the world's silence. Freedom for Gaza and for the heroes of the flotilla who paid with their freedom for the conscience of humanity🇵🇸✌️ chuffed.org/project/177144
