The Global Sumud Flotilla announced Tuesday that its fleet has officially sailed into the “high-risk zone” near Gaza, where the Israeli navy is believed to have enforced a blockade to prevent the ships from reaching the besieged enclave.
Organizers say the flotilla, carrying international activists, aid, and humanitarian supplies, aims to draw global attention to the ongoing blockade of Gaza and highlight the dire conditions faced by Palestinians.
The Israeli navy has a long history of intercepting such flotillas, often sparking diplomatic tensions. Rights groups argue that attempts to stop aid ships underline the severity of Gaza’s isolation under blockade.
The mission has gained widespread international solidarity online, with many hailing it as a bold stand against injustice. However, fears of confrontation remain high as the flotilla moves closer to its destination.
