Two Ships Set Sail From Greece to Join Gaza Aid Flotilla
The Global Sumud Flotilla includes two Greek ships carrying aid to Gaza amid a declared famine affecting about one million people, aiming to challenge the Israeli blockade.
- On Sunday evening, two vessels flying the Greek flag departed from Syros to participate in the Global Sumud Flotilla, which is delivering aid to Gaza amidst the ongoing humanitarian crisis.
- The flotilla formed amid the ongoing Gaza war that erupted in October 2023 after a Hamas attack killed 1,219 Israelis, mostly civilians.
- The flotilla faces suspected drone attacks near Tunisia and aims to pressure governments to stop collaborating with Israel and end the blockade.
- Kostas Fourikos emphasized that the action was intended to demonstrate that Israel should not be allowed to enforce a blockade that causes starvation, highlighting the importance of standing in solidarity with the Palestinians.
- The flotilla’s mission highlights the spiraling humanitarian crisis as the UN declared famine in Gaza in August while Israel denies famine exists.
