[SUBJECT LINE]
URGENT SOS BY NKOSI ZWELIVILELE MANDELA RE ACCOSTING OF THE SAMUD FLOTILLA BY ISRAELI FORCES

To: Mr President, Mr Deputy President, Minister of DIRCO

Dear Sirs

Please take urgent note of the most recent message below by one of the South African delegates of the Samud Flotilla's humanitarian aid activists that they require urgent assistance.

"Comrades and friends, this is Nkosi Zwelivilele Mandela, one of the South African delegates from South Africa. We are seeing Israeli forces ships that are coming on closer towards our boats and possible interception. We are calling on the entire global community to ensure that you exert pressure on your government to call for our safe passage to Gaza. If we are abducted and taken by the Israeli forces, we call on you to exert pressure on your government for our immediate release. Thank you."

The above message was sent through by the grandson of our first democratic President, Mr Nelson Mandela.

We underscore his request for their safe passage to Gaza to successfully deliver the aid their ships are carrying. We also amplify his request to intercede for their immediate and safe release by the Israelis if the latter proceed with illegally abducting, removing them from the ships and holding them in Israeli prisons. We point out that the Israelis accosting an unarmed humanitarian aid mission thus is unlawful according to international law.

It is of utmost importance that the South African government act swiftly and effectively towards the success of the peaceful humanitarian mission and safety of all 500 Samud Flotilla members, including 7 South Africans, as requested.

Kindly announce publicly the steps you are taking towards the above as we are most anxious about their safety at the hands of the genocidal Israeli forces.

Thanking you for your attention.

Yours sincerely
