Vessel carrying activists including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg is attempting to break the blockade of the war-ravaged Gaza Strip
Israel on Sunday ordered the military to stop a humanitarian ship carrying activists, including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg, from breaking the blockade of the war-ravaged Gaza Strip.
"I have instructed the military to prevent the Madleen flotilla from reaching Gaza," Israeli defence minister Israel Katz said in a statement from his office.
Calling Thunberg an "antisemite" and the group of activists "Hamas propaganda mouthpieces", he added: "Turn back because you will not reach Gaza."
The Madleen, operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, left Italy on June 1 with the aim of delivering aid and challenging the Israeli blockade, which has been in place for years even before the Israel-Hamas war since October 2023.
Organisers said Saturday the vessel had entered Egyptian waters and was nearing Gaza, where the war has entered its 21st month.
