Blockade

Hundreds marched in Tunis to denounce Israel’s detention of Global Sumud Flotilla activists, including 25 Tunisians, as released activists began returning home.

As a new flotilla sails for Gaza, the tactics of a previous voyage – from pre-recorded videos to rejected aid routes – provide a clear indication of the media confrontation to come.

After two days anchored near Crete, the 40-vessel flotilla set sail again with Italian and Spanish warships nearby to monitor and support its passage.

The Global Sumud Flotilla sails from Greece towards Gaza, defying Israel’s blockade. Activists, including Greta Thunberg, face rising tensions and Israeli opposition.

The Gaza-bound flotilla regroups off Pantelleria, plotting its next move as it sails more than 1,000 miles toward its destination.

While the legal argument may appear straightforward in military manuals, Israel’s actions are also scrutinized through the lens of international diplomacy.

The pro-Palestinian organization urged the British government to take action to seize the vessel, which was sailing under a British Flag.

The group is carrying supplies for Gazan Palestinians and protesting what they say is “Israel’s “illegal, decades-long blockade, and ongoing genocide” in the enclave.

The "Madleen" ship broadcast a distress signal after spotting a drone flying over the ship, however, their distress signal was in vain.
