One vessel from the flotilla that attempted to break the Israeli maritime blockade on the Gaza Strip is still sailing, according to tracking data and a live stream.

The Marinette apparently had mechanical issues and lagged behind the main armada of over 40 ships, all of which were intercepted and taken over by the Israeli Navy.

According to Global Sumud Flotilla, the Marinette is currently some 80 nautical miles from Gaza.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry warned earlier that if the last ship approaches Gaza, “its attempt to enter an active combat zone and breach the blockade will also be prevented.”
