Spain to File Complaint with ICC Over Zionist Interception of Global Sumud Flotilla
Spanish Interior Minister Fernando Grande-Marlaska announced on Monday that Spain will file a complaint with the International Criminal Court (ICC) regarding the interception of the Global Sumud Flotilla, Al Jazeera Arabic reported.
“Any attack on persons in international waters constitutes a deprivation of liberty under domestic and international law,” Marlaska stated.
More than 400 activists, parliamentarians, and lawyers were detained after Zionist forces intercepted the Gaza-bound humanitarian flotilla earlier this week. Some of those detained have since been deported, while legal proceedings for others remain ongoing.
Spanish activists who participated in the flotilla confirmed on Monday that they were subjected to mistreatment and violations of their rights by Zionist occupation authorities.
Meanwhile, Sweden’s Foreign Minister Maria Malmer Stenergard described as “very serious” that climate activist Greta Thunberg was among those mistreated during the operation, should the claims be confirmed.
