OSLO: Norway has asked Israel to explain the legal grounds for detaining a Norwegian-flagged fishing boat seized while activists tried to sail with aid to the Gaza Strip, Norway鈥檚 foreign ministry said on Tuesday.
The ministry said its diplomats in Israel had been providing consular assistance to five Norwegians who were among the 22 passengers and crew detained onboard the vessel Kaarstein on Sunday. Two Israelis on board were quickly released.
鈥淲e have asked the Israeli authorities to clarify the circumstances around the seizure of the vessel and the legal basis for the intervention,鈥� the spokesman for the Norwegian foreign affairs ministry in Oslo said. A spokesman for Israel鈥檚 Foreign Ministry declined to comment.
Torstein Dahle, head of the group Ship to Gaza Norway which organized the shipment, said it was the first Norwegian aid vessel to attempt to breach the Israeli blockade of Gaza.
The captain had been struck on the head by Israeli soldiers who ordered him to sail for Israel, but no one was seriously hurt, Dahle said.
鈥淭his is a peaceful boat; it鈥檚 impossible that it can threaten Israel鈥檚 security,鈥� he said.
The Gaza Strip is controlled by the Hamas, which has fought three wars against Israel in the decade since taking power there.
Israel, citing security concerns that include fears of Hamas weapons smuggling, maintains a naval blockade of Gaza, and along with Egypt also restricts imports by land.
The territory is home to 2 million Palestinians, mainly the stateless descendants of people who fled or were driven out of what is now Israel at its founding in 1948. Under the blockade, Gaza has suffered an economic crisis creating what the World Bank describes as a 鈥渃ollapse in humanitarian conditions鈥� including access to clean water, medicine and electricity.
Numerous activist ships have been prevented from reaching Gaza in recent years. An Israeli raid on a Turkish flotilla in 2010, in which ten activists were killed, caused a serious rupture in relations between Israel and Turkey, one of Israel鈥檚 few friends in the Middle East.
Audun Lysbakken, leader of Norway鈥檚 opposition Socialist Left party, called on the foreign ministry to protest against what he described as Israel 鈥渉ijacking鈥� the Norwegian boat in international waters.
Among those detained is Mikkel Gruner, a Danish citizen who lives in Norway and is the Socialist Left representative in the municipal council of the Norwegian city of Bergen. Lysbakken said the activists had legal rights to protest against Israel鈥檚 blockade, demanding the release of Gruner and the others.
