🌊 Nine ships are sailing toward the Gaza Strip in a bold bid to breach Israel's naval blockade. The newest vessel, Conscience, left Italy on Wednesday with about 100 volunteers—medical workers, journalists, and activists—all aboard.
These nine vessels, which set off from Italy nearly a week ago, are currently spotted near the Greek island of Crete, according to tracking data. Their goal is clear: deliver lifesaving aid and spotlight Gaza's humanitarian crisis.
Just days earlier, the Israeli navy seized the Global Sumud Flotilla, a 44-ship convoy, detaining hundreds of volunteers. That operation ignited global outrage, with protests from Europe to Latin America 🌎🔥.
Now, the question on everyone's mind: will Israel intercept again? As this convoy makes its journey, it's more than a voyage—it's a statement on peaceful activism and solidarity. Stay tuned for updates! 🚢✨
