Widespread backlash grows over Israel's interception of ‘Madeleine' Flotilla
Shafaq News/ Israel's seizure of the humanitarian ship 'Madeleine' in international waters on Monday has drawn widespread backlash and renewed scrutiny of its blockade on Gaza. Hamas labeled the interception 'piracy' and a 'war crime,' urging the immediate release of all activists onboard and holding Israel fully accountable for their safety. Al-Haq, a rights group based in Ramallah, condemned the operation as an 'unlawful interception,' framing it as part of Israel's strategy to isolate and dismantle Palestinian society. Al-Haq urges states & intl orgs to ensure safe passage for the Madleen crew. Detained activists must be released & protected now. Let the #Madleen sail to Gaza. #FreePalestine #LetMadleenSail #MadleenToGaza — Al-Haq الحق (@alhaq_org) June 9, 2025 The operation also sparked internal dissent. Israeli media reported frustration within naval ranks, with a former navy chief telling Maariv the standoff should have been resolved through diplomacy, not force. The Australian Government must now impose immediate sanctions on the Israeli arms industry and the Netanyahu Government and end the two way arms trade with Israel #Madleen — David Shoebridge (@DavidShoebridge) June 9, 2025 Internationally, Australian Senator David Shoebridge denounced the raid as 'a clear breach of international law,' urging Canberra to sanction Israel's arms sector and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's government. UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese echoed those calls, stressing that 'breaking the siege is a legal duty for states and a moral imperative for all of us.' While #Madleen must be released immediately, every Mediterranean port should send boats with aid, solidarity, and humanity to Gaza. They shall sail together—united, they will be unstoppable. #BreakingTheSiege is a legal duty for states, and a moral imperative for all of us. — Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt (@FranceskAlbs) June 9, 2025 Israel's Foreign Ministry confirmed the 'Madeleine,' also known as 'Madleen,' was towed at 3 a.m. local time into Israeli waters under orders from Defense Minister Israel Katz. The military claimed the move followed prior warnings and said all 12 passengers would be deported. Those detained included Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg and Irish actor Liam Cunningham, known for Game of Thrones. This marks the second maritime standoff in recent weeks. In May, the aid ship Al-Dameer was reportedly damaged by an Israeli drone while approaching Gaza.

Israel: Top Hamas Commander Mohammad al-Sinwar's body recovered
Shafaq News/ Israeli forces have recovered the body of senior Hamas commander Mohammad al-Sinwar during an underground operation beneath the European Hospital in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, the military reported on Sunday. Forensic testing confirmed al-Sinwar's identity, according to military spokesperson Avichay Adraee. The raid, conducted in coordination with the Shin Bet security agency, also yielded weapons, documents, and personal belongings tied to al-Sinwar and Mohammad Shabaneh, commander of Hamas' Rafah Brigade. Al-Sinwar, the brother of former Hamas leader Yahya al-Sinwar, was reportedly killed in a May 13 airstrike targeting a Hamas tunnel network. Israeli media reported the recovery of multiple bodies from beneath the hospital complex. Troops also confiscated command infrastructure and intelligence materials now undergoing analysis. Yahya al-Sinwar, accused of masterminding the October 7, 2023, attack on southern Israel, was killed in an Israeli strike in October 2024. With both brothers now confirmed dead, Israel claims it has neutralized two of Hamas' top military operatives. The development comes as Israel continues its offensive in Gaza. Since October 7, Gaza's Health Ministry has reported over 54,700 deaths and more than 125,800 injuries.
