#nonviolent-resistance

Security protocols in case of an emergency were reviewed and put into action: life vests, head counts and designated muster points. They were training for scenarios that could occur on any vessel fire, someone falling overboard, collision. But this training was different because there was another scenario. The volunteers were instructed on how to raise their hands in the event that Israeli soldiers intercepted the vessel, boarded it and detained them. The focus is on acting in a nonviolent way, in accordance with their mission.
