Greta Thunberg and 11 other activists departed from Catania, Italy, on a boat named Madleen, aiming to break Israel's siege on Gaza. The voyage, organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, seeks to deliver aid and raise awareness of the humanitarian crisis. The activists, including actor Liam Cunningham and a French MEP, expect a seven-day journey. This follows a previous attempt thwarted by an alleged drone attack. Israel maintains its blockade is to pressure Hamas for the release of hostages, while the activists accuse Israel of genocide, a claim Israel vehemently denies.
