Aid ships

Israel had eased out its Naval blockade in the Gaza region, due to the criticism and pressure which had been put on Israel by international governments, due to the killing of the Turkish people on the flotilla that was carrying aid to Gaza.

Israel is allowing food and other types of aid to enter Gaza through road, but still has maintained a tight grip on their naval blockade. Gaza has been under militant command since the year 2007. Shalev stated that Israel will use any means to prevent these ships
to reach Gaza, as per the international laws. Further more he stated that these vessels can also carry weapons and ammunition support for the people of Gaza, and also people who are who would be having provocative and confrontational intentions against the Israelites.
