Several countries have condemned Israel after its navy intercepted the Gaza-bound humanitarian convoy known as the 'Global Sumud Flotilla' in international waters. The incident, which occurred on Monday, involved the detention of multiple ships and activists, sparking a joint statement led by Jordan that labeled the action a violation of international law and human rights.

According to Jordan’s foreign ministry, Jordan, Indonesia, Spain, Pakistan, Brazil, Bangladesh, Turkey, Colombia, Libya, and the Maldives jointly denounced Israel’s move. The statement expressed deep concern over the attack on the flotilla and the detention of its participants, urging the immediate release of all detained personnel and respect for their rights and dignity.

The ministry further stated that repeated attacks on peaceful humanitarian missions reflect Israel’s ongoing disregard for international law and freedom of navigation. The leaders called on the international community to take effective measures in response to the incident.
