Israel has issued a warning regarding the "Freedom Flotilla" led by climate activist Greta Thunberg, which is en route to Gaza carrying symbolic humanitarian aid. The vessel, named Madleen, departed from Catania, Italy, with 12 activists aboard, aiming to challenge the Israeli blockade imposed in March 2025. Israeli military spokesperson Brigadier General Effie Defrin stated, "We are prepared," referencing past actions against similar flotillas. The activists reported being followed by drones, later identified as belonging to the Greek Coast Guard. Thunberg emphasized the mission's non-violent nature, asserting the importance of continued humanitarian efforts despite potential interception. (PC: Daily Mail)
