US EditionClimate Activist Greta Thunberg To Visit Gaza
- On Sunday, a cargo ship carrying Greta Thunberg along with several fellow activists is scheduled to depart from Catania, Sicily, heading to Gaza as part of an effort organized by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition.
- This voyage follows Israel's blockade of Gaza since March 2, imposed to weaken Hamas and pressure hostage release, which Thunberg opposed after being refused entry to Israel.

- The trip reinforces international attention on Gaza’s humanitarian crisis amid recent partial lifting of the blockade amid warnings of starvation and rejected ceasefire offers.
