    That assumes the blockade is legal though? Has an international court that is recognized by the ship’s flag country declared the legality of the blockade?

      I don’t know of a court ruling. The UN‘s Palmer Report declared it Legal.

      However as with lots of things regarding international law, there are different opinions.

        Icj in 2024 said it was illegal. They wasn’t even intercepted in gaza water. No matter how you look at it it was illegal.
