Activists announce ‘Freedom Fleet 2’ to Gaza from European ports

International pro-Palestinian groups said a large flotilla dubbed “Freedom Fleet 2” is preparing to sail from European ports, including Marseille and Barcelona, toward Gaza in an effort to challenge the blockade and deliver humanitarian aid.

Organisers said the initiative also aims to draw global attention to the humanitarian situation in Gaza and increase pressure for a permanent end to the blockade.

Your path is green, O free ones; oil and olive... From #Barcelona set sail today the ##Fleet_of_Steadfastness with nearly seventy yachts laden with thousands upon thousands of the free; say Allah ﷻ https://t.co/sx2lq0MGaw
