Activist-led humanitarian aid ship en route to Gaza
The Madleen ship, launched by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), is on its way to Gaza carrying humanitarian aid and rights activists protesting Israel’s illegal blockade of the Strip.
If there are no disruptions, the ship and its 12-person crew, including climate activist Greta Thunberg, are expected to reach the enclave on June 7.

Err... That boat can barely carry enough food for the 12 people on board. It's a brave gesture I guess.

According to an FFC press release, the Madleen is carrying things urgently needed by people in Gaza, including medical supplies, flour, rice, baby formula, nappies, women’s sanitary products, water desalination kits, crutches and children’s prosthetics.
Must be bigger on the inside :p
Expected to arrive in 3 days.

French leader voices support for European Parliament member on flotilla
Jean-Luc Melenchon, the leader of the left-wing La France Insoumise party, has lauded European Parliament member Rima Hassan for accompanying the activists on the Madleen aid ship, saying that what she is doing to break the siege on Gaza is “extremely useful”.
Melenchon spoke to Hassan via video feed on the channel Al Jazeera Mubasher. The French politician, who came within a whisker of the run-off round for the 2022 French presidential elections, also criticised the European Union for its close ties to Israel.
He said the bloc has not honoured the accord that governs its relations with Israel — known as the Association Agreement — which calls for respecting human rights. “In the face of the genocide in Gaza, the European Union has been and remains lamentable,” Melenchon said.
Israel will not allow ship to approach Gaza: Report
Kan, Israel’s public broadcaster, reports that the Israeli security establishment has decided to block the Madleen aid ship from reaching the besieged enclave. But it is unclear how Israeli forces will confront the ship.
In 2010, the Israeli military raided the Gaza Freedom Flotilla, which was carrying assistance for Palestinians, in international waters and killed 10 activists on board.
It won't be hard to attach a chain to the front of that boat and drag it away...
