Israeli Navy Intercepts Gaza Aid Flotilla
In the Mediterranean Sea, the Israeli navy has reportedly begun intercepting and seizing vessels linked to the Global Sumud Flotilla.
The flotilla had been attempting to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza and challenge Israel’s long-standing blockade on the territory.
