Update2: Israeli Commando Units deploy off Ashdod port

Gaza, May 31, (Pal Telegraph – By Sameh Habeeb) Israeli navy deployed a huge number of commando units in preparation to launch a military attack on the civilian boats of Freedom Flotilla.

Eyewitness told the Palestine Telegraph that Israeli naval speed boats loaded with commando units deployed off Gaza-Israel shores, northern Gaza. The Eyewitnesses confirmed that at least 15 boats backed with helicopters deployed in the last 2 hours.

The deployment of the units was focused near Ashdod port and moved from Givat Yona area which is a few minutes away from the Ashdod port. A huge number of Israeli soliders have been brought to the place, expected to be from Givati Brigade.

European Campaign to End Siege on Gaza (ECESG) confirmed 5 minutes ago that it has lost the communication with other boats due to Israel army satellite jam attempts.
