00:20was quite chaotic and uncertain so I don't really know what's going on I
00:24haven't had a phone for many days and I what were the conditions for you over the

00:37is yet another international a violation of international rights adding to the
00:45list of countless of such especially towards Palestinian that Israel are
00:49committing by blocking and preventing humanitarian aid from entering Gaza that
00:56this that is illegal yeah they probably have posted lots of PR stunt videos as I
01:06said I have not seen anything but they did an illegal act by kidnapping us on
