The ship with Panamanian registry was apprehended near the Sudan/Eritrean border in international waters.

In addition, the missile ship that was commanding the operation from a safe distance was equipped with a number of operating rooms, which were on alert status as the Shayetet 13 operation was underway. There was a large medical staff on board on standby, ready to act to treat wounded commandos. B’chasdei Hashem this was not necessary.

The zionist military is in clear violation of HaShem’s torah. They should in no way be praised. Davening and torah learning is the only way to protect the Yidden of the world.
Prepared for the worst. Not the worse.
I wouldn’t bring it into an Israeli port until it is “sanitized” = completely checked out for major explosives or biological weapons. This could be a Trojan Horse! Be very careful.
