Israeli forces intercepted a nine-vessel flotilla carrying food and medical supplies bound for Gaza. The 150 passengers, from various countries, were stopped in international waters and are being transferred to an Israeli port for deportation. Organizers condemned the action as a violation of international law. This comes amid a severe humanitarian crisis in Gaza, with a UN-backed report confirming famine in Gaza City, a situation Israel disputes, stating it facilitates aid entry.
