Gaza-bound boat says vessel that triggered alarm has turned back
Add ToI as a Preferred Source on GoogleA vessel that was approaching Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s Gaza-bound ship the Madleen has left, the coalition says, after an alarm was sounded on the ship warning of a possible interception.
UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese, who says she is in contact with activists aboard the vessel, reports that the activist boat — which is attempting to challenge Israel’s blockade on Gaza — is continuing on its journey.
“All looks calm and safe now. Speedboats watching; but the flotilla continues its sailing. It will be a long night,” she writes on X.
