Turkiye’s foreign affairs ministry has accused Israel of “an act of terrorism” by intercepting an activist flotilla bound for Gaza with humanitarian aid, AFP reports.

“The attack by Israeli forces in international waters against the Global Sumud flotilla, which was on its way to deliver humanitarian aid to the people of Gaza, is an act of terrorism that constitutes the most serious violation of international law and endangers the lives of innocent civilians,” the ministry said in a statement.
