17 November 2015 - 18:23
South African authorities have not issued warrants of arrest against officers in the Israeli military in connection with the so-called “Freedom Flotilla” of ships attempting to break a blockade in the Gaza strip region in 2010. This is contrary to claims earlier on Tuesday by the Media Review Network (MRN) and BDS South Africa.National police spokesman‚ Brigadier Hangwani Mulaudzi‚ denied the MRN claims."There is no truth to this. No arrest warrants have been issued for any of the people mentioned‚” he said. “We have checked with our Interpol and our Crimes Against The State officials and they deny any such thing."- TMG Digital..
