The Freedom Flotilla has sued Netanyahu in the National High Court for boarding the humanitarian ship
The complaint was filed by activist Sergio Toribio, who explained that they were kidnapped in international waters and taken to Tel Aviv against the law.
Israel continues to kill Palestinians every day in the Gaza Strip.
Thecomplaint has been filed by Sergio Toribio, who was on board the ship, and by the Arab Cause Solidarity Committee, and, in addition to the Prime Minister, Israel Katz, who is accused of war crimes, crimes against humanity, illegal detention and degrading treatment .
Toribio explains that the ship was hijacked by a special combat unit a hundred nautical miles off the coast in international waters. The legal text alleges that the detainees were forcibly taken to Tel Aviv, held incommunicado, stripped of everything they were carrying and tried to indoctrinate them.
According to the court document, "drones, tear gas and non-lethal weapons were used during the approach, and the twelve crew members, all unarmed civilians, were arrested at will, without prior notice or court order, without military threat."
"These facts, in accordance with the Spanish legal system, constitute war crimes and are framed in the context of systematic attacks against the Palestinians in Gaza and those who try to help them," explained lawyer Jaume Asens to EFE.
The complaint calls for the opening of a judicial investigation, the taking of statements and the gathering of evidence on the Israeli military operation. They have also called for cooperation with the International Criminal Court, which is investigating Israel for genocide.
