This week, an attack on the Freedom Flotilla boat, The ‘Conscience’, was launched while it was off the coast of Malta. The ‘Conscience’ was loaded with life-saving humanitarian aid for Gaza before being disabled.

The Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa, has said that the attack, which happened in international waters, was a thoroughly predictable war crime committed by an “out-of-control” Israel, and shows that Israel’s genocide strategy has now gone global.

To talk about this, as well as how the New Zealand government should respond, Producer Max spoke with John Minto, National Co-Chair of the Palestine Solidarity Network Aotearoa.
