Israeli forces using ‘active aggression’ on fleet: Gaza flotilla organisers

The organisers of the Global Sumud Flotilla say that Israeli navy forces are using “active aggression” on their fleet trying to deliver aid to Gaza.

“Florida vessel has been deliberately rammed at sea. Yulara, Meteque and others have been targeted with water cannons,” the Global Sumud Flotilla said in a post on Telegram.

All passengers on board are unharmed, it added.
