Gaza flotilla heads to Turkey to update legal strategy after Navy interception

Approximately 30 vessels from a Gaza-bound humanitarian flotilla redirected toward the Turkish port of Marmaris on Friday, a week after the Israeli Navy intercepted 22 boats and detained two activist leaders, Palestinian Saif Abu Keshek and Brazilian Thiago Ávila. Flotilla organizers plan an emergency meeting in Marmaris over the weekend to revise legal strategy and operational plans, while the two detained activists face a court hearing Sunday where Israel is expected to seek an extension of their detention on suspicion of security offenses.
