Six Canadian Citizens Attacked and Abducted by Israeli Military in International Waters (2025)

“The ‘Conscience’ volunteers have been attacked and likely abducted by Israeli forces while in international waters on their way to open a sea corridor to Gaza.”

Freedom Flotilla Coalition statement:

“The ‘Conscience’ volunteers have been attacked and likely abducted by Israeli forces while in international waters on their way to open a sea corridor to Gaza. These are the six volunteers from so-called Canada.

The flotilla was sailing in accordance with international law, outside Israeli jurisdiction. We call on the Canadian government and people to condemn this crime and to demand the immediate release of all abducted volunteers, as well as an end to Israel’s illegal blockade and ongoing genocide in Gaza.
