Israeli occupation has warned on Sunday 26/6/2011, foreign correspondents of joining to an international Flotilla, including nearly 10 ships carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza, and it will sail from Greece in the coming days.

According to the Israeli government press office, the foreign correspondents who will join the fleet would be barred from entering for 10 years.
 
The director of press office Oren Hillman said in a letter addressed to the representatives of foreign mass media, "Freedom Flotilla intends to violate the blockade, which is identical for all treaties and international law."

It is expected that many activists will sail from 22 countries from Greece next week aboard about 10 ships "Freedom Flotilla 2"; so that they can transfer humanitarian aid to Gaza despite Israeli threats.
 
It is worth mentioning that nine Turkish people were killed in May 2010, in an attack carried out by the Israeli navy on Marmara ship in the international waters.
