Turkey: Aid Flotilla Is Planned for Gaza
An Islamist charity plans to send a new aid flotilla to the Gaza Strip this year to challenge Israel’s naval blockade there, the group announced Tuesday. The organization — the Turkish Foundation for Human Rights and Freedoms and Humanitarian Relief, known as I.H.H. — said it would also organize demonstrations at sea and in ports worldwide over the next months, and campaign for the opening of a port in Gaza for international marine traffic.
