Freedom Flotilla with aid to Gaza continues to prepare for departure

Ankara, April 22 (UNI) Organisers of a new Freedom Flotilla with humanitarian shipment for the Gaza Strip continue preparations for its upcoming departure despite reports of talks between Turkey and Israel to change the route, Turkish humanitarian relief foundation IHH told Sputnik.

On Sunday, Israeli news portal Ynet reported that Israeli and Turkish authorities were allegedly discussing sending the Freedom Flotilla to the Gaza Strip via Egypt to prevent a repeat of the events of 2010, when Israeli commandos intercepted a ship of the flotilla after it tried to breach the Gaza blockade, which resulted in the deaths of 10 Turkish nationals.
