Original Note:
The interceptions happened after a refusal of inspection, replying with "Go Back to Auschwitz" Activists onboard the Mavi Marmara were armed with knives and iron bars, making them combatants. The soldiers fired only after being thrown overboard and having their guns seized. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=z31GesVrBjc https://web.archive.org/web/20111109084030/http://www.terrorism-info.org.il/malam_multimedia/English/eng_n/pdf/ipc_e162.pdf
