(English) Victims say soldiers started shooting before boarding and they killed 2 activists, photographer "Cevdet Kılıçlar" was shot in his head and died. Then we started to defend ourselves by using sticks and slingshots. We captured 10 soldiers, grabbed their weapons and threw guns into sea. Although we treated wounded soldiers, they shot the doctor too but he didn't die. Each soldier had a list, they were looking for the activists on that list, they shot some of them. Activist "İbrahim Bilgen" was killed thinking he was "Raid Salah" and the soldier reported "Salah is dead". Then, the IHH leader Bülent Yıldırım said enough is enough and showed white flag, but soldiers kept shooting.
(sorry for grammar mistakes in the translation, I tried my best)
