(Israel Hayom) Lilach Shoval - Ten years after the May 31, 2010, IDF raid on the Mavi Marmara, a Turkish ship trying to breach the maritime blockade on Gaza, troops involved in the mission that ended with 10 dead passengers and several Israeli soldiers seriously wounded insist the operation was not a failure. One member of the Shayetet 13 Naval Special Forces Unit that led the mission said: "The unusual factor here was the number of passengers on board and the fact that we didn't know that there were about 60 IHH terrorists among them. In the flotillas that preceded the Marmara we encountered peace activists - not terrorists who were paid to kill Israeli soldiers." His feet barely touched the deck before three men jumped him. "I took a blow to the head from a crowbar and my helmet flew off. They came at me with axes, crowbars and hammers. The first thing that went through my head was, 'What's going on here?' We never encountered such violence, it was off the charts. When the third crowbars hit me in the head it finally dawned on me - they were actually trying to kill me. So I grabbed my weapon and shot one of the terrorists." 2020-06-01 00:00:00Full Article
