E-mail Print PDF

Paveen Yaqub survived the Israeli attack the Mavi Marmara, the main passenger ship carrying over 500 passengers as part of the Humanitarian Aid Flotilla bound for Gaza which was fatally attacked by Israeli commandos.

'The BBC report did not mention the autopsy report - 30 bullets used to kill 9 civilians, many shot at close range

The BBC report did not mention the autopsy report - 30 bullets used to kill 9 civilians, many shot at close range, several times, in their chests, heads and backs whilst they were carrying nothing more than cameras in a desperate bid to record evidence of the attack.

Despite civilians having the weapons of the disarmed soldiers in their possession, these were never used against them and if we were using weapons, where were the shot Israeli commandos?
