"La navi della marina militare israeliana stanno sparando proiettili, di cui non conosciamo la tipologia, non sappiamo se veri o di gomma". A dirlo in una dichiarazione video è Maria Elena Delia, portavoce italiana della Global Sumud Flotilla. "Sei delle barche sono state colpite. Una di queste, la Girolama batte bandiera italiana".
Anche se i proiettili fossero di gomma, ha aggiunto, "è gravissimo. Stanno già compiendo un atto criminale, e ora aggiungono anche l'utilizzo delle armi".
