Your support is crucial…Los Angeles Times:
Israeli warships Saturday intercepted another aid supply ship sailed by pro-Palestinian activists as it headed toward the Gaza Strip in an attempt to break Israel’s naval blockade of the seaside territory.
Unlike a previous raid, Saturday’s takeover occurred without bloodshed after Israeli naval negotiators reached an agreement to board the cargo vessel with activists’ permission, according to Israeli military officials.
The report could not be confirmed with activists because Israeli military jammed satellite and radio communications on the boat.
With an uncertain future and a new administration casting doubt on press freedoms, the danger is clear: The truth is at risk.
