Israeli Navy Ram into Olivia Boat, Injure International Activist

GAZA, December 28, 2011 (WAFA) – An Israeli navy boat Wednesday rammed into Olivia, an international boat to monitor human rights in Gaza waters, injuring an international activist, according to WAFA correspondent.

He said that an Israeli military boat intercepted and rammed into Olivia boat, carrying fishermen and foreign activists to document the Israeli violations of international law against Palestinian fishermen, injuring and bruising an activist despite the fact that Olivia did not cross the three-nautical-mile fishing grounds defined in international agreements.

To be noted, Olivia boat has been subjected to similar attacks by the Israeli navy boats since it started its work, several months ago, aiming to stop the activists from practicing their work.
