Again, there are no Paletinian territorial waters, regardless of who recognizes what. Those waters have not been negotiated yet between Palestine and Israel. Even in the unofficial state of Palestine...there are not yet territorial waters they claim.

Add to this the blockade. A legal blockade I might add. Running a blockade gets one fired upon. Military force used to break a blockade is generally considered an act of war. Ships entering the blockade zone are subject to searches by the Israeli Navy. Warships entering the area may be subject to other rules, but one imagines the Isreali Navy will attempt to inspect whatever ships they are escorting, including firing on those ships if they do not comply. If the Turks return fire for the ships they are escorting...well...that is a problem now, isn't it.
