Israeli Forces Seize Gaza-Bound Aid Boat Carrying Greta Thunberg

  • Israeli forces intercepted the Madleen yacht carrying 12 pro-Palestinian activists including Greta Thunberg early Monday morning near Gaza's coast.
  • The interception followed the Madleen’s departure from Sicily on June 1 as part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition’s effort to break Israel's naval blockade of Gaza imposed since 2007.
  • The activists brought small amounts of aid items like food staples and infant nutrition, while Israeli authorities labeled the journey a publicity stunt with minimal assistance and diverted the vessel to the port of Ashdod.
  • Defense Minister Israel Katz called Thunberg antisemitic and said the activists would be shown harrowing footage of the October 7, 2023 Hamas-led massacre to reveal the terrorist organization’s brutality.
  • The interception reinforced Israel’s stance that aid must enter Gaza only through established channels to prevent weapons smuggling, while Palestinian and Hamas authorities condemned the seizure and called for protection of the activists.
