The Gaza flotilla raid happened on 31 May 2010. It was in the international waters of the Mediterranean Sea. Israeli naval forces seized an aid flotilla of six ships carrying 663 or 682 pro-Palestinian activists from 37 nations,[1] known as the "Gaza Freedom Flotilla".[2] The activists were trying to breach the blockade of Gaza and deliver humanitarian supplies.[2][3] During the event, Israeli military forces seized a convoy of six ships carrying goods which should be brought to the Palestinian territories in the form of aid. There were 663-682[4] people on board these ships. The ships were headed to the port of Gaza. Israel had offered them to land at a different port so that the aid could be inspected, but the crew had declined this offer. During the incident, at least nine people were killed.
