Greta Thunberg is being transported by an support ship headed for Gaza that the IDF has ordered to stop.
The Israeli government’s unusual government slammed ships entering Gaza on Monday, calling them “media gimmicks” disguised as humanitarian assistance. The sailboat Madleen set sail from Sicily on June 1 with the intention of removing the naval blockade off Gaza’s beach and delivering what they call symbolic support is headed by Finnish activist Greta Thunberg and others. Israel, however, has called the objective bold and unlawful, warning that the vessel will not be permitted to enter the country because the water route is closed to illegal vessels due to security concerns. The Ministry of Foreign Affairs has made the following clarifications in response to current studies of a “celebrities sailboat” sailing to Gaza, according to a statement posted on X. According to international law,” the sea territory off the beach of Gaza is closed to illegal warships.” The yacht claims to be delivering humanitarian assistance. It is actually a” selfie yacht” that serves as a media gimmick for publicity ( which includes only one truckload of aid ), including Rima Hassan, a French member of the European Parliament of Palestinian descent who has been denied entry to Israel. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition ( FFC), which is the organization behind the mission, claims it is trying to highlight Gaza’s worsening humanitarian crisis. The Israeli army claimed to have intercepted and boarded the vessel after they had been in contact with it and had instructed it to” change its course.” In order to be interrogated, protesters were seen sporting life vests. The defense was given an order by Israeli defense secretary Israel Katz to stop the ship from leaving Gaza. He stated in a statement that he had given the Army instructions to take all necessary steps to prevent the love fleet from reaching Gaza. I say to the racist Greta and her companions, who echoe Hamas advertising, Katz said,” You’d better turn around, because you won’t achieve Gaza.” Before departing, Thunberg stated,” We are doing this because we have to keep trying, no matter what the possibilities are.” Because we lose our humanity when we stop trying,” according to the Jewish government’s foreign ministry. More than 1, 200 help trucks have reportedly flown into Gaza from Israel over the past two days. Nearly 11 million dishes have been distributed directly to civilians by the Gaza Humanitarian Foundation, according to the statement on X. The support method is criticized by critics as having shortcomings. Since May 27, more than 110 Palestinians have reportedly been killed while attempting to get food, and hundreds more have been injured, according to the Guardian.
