Freedom Flotilla seized by Israel - what should be done?

The Madleen has been seized. The vessel, which includes activist Greta Thunberg among its crew of 12, was aiming to deliver aid to Gaza, and raise international awareness of the humanitarian crisis there.

Francesca Albanese is UN Special Rapporteur to the Occupied Palestinian Territories, and joins Kieran to discuss.
