Aid flotilla ‘Thousand Madleens’ departs Sicily for Gaza after Sumud convoy attack | ABS-CBN News

A flotilla of humanitarian boats dubbed the “Thousand Madleens,” departed from Italy's Catania on Saturday (September 27), heading towards Gaza. Activists said the boats carry humanitarian supplies intended for civilians in the Gaza Strip, where Israel maintains a blockade. The departure from Sicily came a day after the Global Sumud Flotilla defied repeated warnings from Israel that it would use any means necessary to prevent the boats from reaching the war-torn enclave. Roughly 50 civilian vessels are participating in the initiative, joined by parliamentarians, lawyers, and activists, including Swedish climate campaigner Greta Thunberg. The flotilla's passage across the Mediterranean has heightened regional tensions, especially after organizers reported that drones attacked them earlier in the week. While no injuries were reported, the incident prompted Italy and Spain to deploy naval ships to safeguard their citizens, as well as other European participants, on board.
