Dozens of ships carrying over 300 international activists set sail from Barcelona as part of the “Global Sumud Flotilla” to deliver aid to Gaza despite Israel’s blockade. Participants include Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, actress Susan Sarandon, and actor Liam Cunningham.
Organizers said more than 50 ships will join the mission from Italy, Greece, and Tunisia in early September. Thousands gathered at the port in support, while activists stressed the flotilla aims to break Israel’s blockade and provide humanitarian relief to Gaza, where famine conditions persist.
