Israeli forces board Gaza-bound flotilla near Cyprus, activists say
Pro-Palestinian activists from the Global Sumud Flotilla report Israeli forces have boarded their fleet of over 50 aid-carrying boats in international waters west of Cyprus, calling the action illegal piracy. Israel, which enforces a lawful maritime blockade on Gaza, has labeled the flotilla a provocation; it previously intercepted part of the same group near Crete last month, while the UN cites ongoing barriers to humanitarian aid delivery in Gaza despite a seven-month Israel-Hamas ceasefire.
