  • The Gaza Flotilla Incident - Not a dull moment in the Middle East - on May 31, teams from the IDF elite Naval Commando unit - Shayetet 13 - raided on a flotilla of six civilian vessels carrying activists who were attempting to breach the IDF maritime blockade of Gaza and refused to change course. The operators boarded the boats from fast attack boats using ladders as well as fast roped from IAF helicopters. As the IDF was excepting little resistance, most operators were lightly armed with non-lethal paintball guns as well as handguns for backup. However, when the operators boarded the biggest of the vessels - the Mavi Marmara - the raid quickly escalated when the few operators on board were attacked by dozens of rioters (see video 1 and 2), and resulted to usage of live fire in order to regain control. In the aftermath, few operators were injured and few activists were killed and the operators were able to take control over the vessel.
