They said the passengers, who include people from five countries, including a Palestinian from inside Israel, did not confront the Israeli navy and they were led to Ashdod port.

The nongovernmental organizations (NGOs) Network denounced this attack and said in a statement that it is concerned about the safety of the 27 passengers whom they lost contact with.

It considered this attack part of the Israeli crimes against Palestinians and those in solidarity with them, as well as a flagrant violation of all the international treaties.

It called on the international community, especially human rights organizations to take immediate and urgent actions to ensure the safety of the passengers and to release them.

The NGOs network also called on the international community to immediately interfere and end the illegal and immoral Israeli siege imposed on the Gaza Strip.
