Clearly the ambush was real and the culprits are being freed while the world condemns Israel. In the video commandos aboard the ship can be heard shouting to one another, “It’s coming from all directions- we need to be evacuated now!” The IDF commandos, during the operation to redirect the Gaza flotilla, boarded the Mavi Marmara in the early hours of May 31st, 2010. When they attempted to board, activists, in a prepared attack, lynched the soldiers and stole two pistols.
In this footage you can hear the radio exchange between soldiers on their way to the bridge and the IDF ship. The soldiers report encountering live fire and serious violence.
