    The ship didn’t head for Israel. The ship was operated by a company that had also sailed to Israel with a different ship.

    Sinking civilian ships does nothing to help Palestinians.

      The company was also willing to violate the blockade, it seems likely they’d change their destination once they passed the blockade.

          You just said another one of their ships went to Israel, and we know thus ship violated the blockade, do you think the other ship was broadcasting that they were headed to Israel the whole journey? Or are you saying my assumption was unreasonable?

            How do you think aid gets delivered to Gaza? By ship to Israeli ports and then on to trucks.

            The Houthis blockade is not a legal blockade according to international maritime law because its neither effective not discriminate. It’s piracy and terrorism against civilian vessels. It also has achieved nothing for Palestinians.
