Arrest in international waters is actually legal during a naval blockade. If a ship has announced its intention to break a the naval blockade, continues to head for it, and doesn’t react to hails, then it’s legal. Look up maritime law on blockades.
Same as you can arrest a criminal just before committing a crime.
Wrong. Israels actions of blockade and starvation are illegal. Full stop. The law you’re referring to does not apply to a nation in violation of these laws. Israel doesn’t get to point to a law to protect them as they violate other international laws and genocide a population. You’re just wrong. That’s not how laws work. You can’t just read one law and then say “welp, guess they can do this”. They can’t when the very blockade itself is illegal. The blockade itself has to be a legal blockade that does not starve a population of aid and committing acts of genocide.
You’re just so embarrassingly wrong.
