In anticipation of the expected release today of the Report of the Secretary-General’s Panel of Inquiry on the 31 May 2010 Flotilla Incident, which was leaked yesterday, the Center for Constitutional Rights (CCR) released the following statement:
The Center for Constitutional Rights strongly denounces the conclusion by the Secretary-General’s Panel of Inquiry that the naval blockade of Gaza is legal, a finding that is inconsistent with international law as set forth by CCR in a legal analysis, and contradicted by conclusions of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights and the United Nations Human Rights Council Fact-Finding Mission to investigate violations of international law resulting from the Israeli attacks on the flotilla, as well as numerous human rights organizations.
