Gaza mission's Flotilla sets sail from Menorca to Tunisia, real-time updates provided

The Global Sumud Flotilla, a coalition of activist networks seeking to break the Israeli blockade of Gaza amid a declared famine, embarked on its mission from Barcelona, Spain on Sunday. The flotilla, supported by civil society representatives and political figures, consists of multiple vessels, each navigating towards their common destination – the Palestinian enclave of Gaza.

The flotilla's journey comes amidst a dire situation in Gaza, where a famine has been declared. The organisers, which include the Free Gaza Movement, aim to deliver a symbol of solidarity and resistance for the people of Gaza.

However, the flotilla's voyage has not been without challenges. Bad weather has posed significant obstacles, causing the flotilla to turn back on Sunday. Undeterred, the flotilla departed again from Barcelona on Monday, resuming its journey through the Mediterranean Sea.

The Israeli blockade of Gaza remains a significant hurdle for the flotilla. The organisers are determined to overcome this barrier and reach their destination. The flotilla's ultimate goal is to break the Israeli blockade on Gaza.

The Global Sumud Flotilla's journey is being closely monitored by international news outlets, reflecting the global interest in this humanitarian mission. The flotilla is currently navigating through the Mediterranean Sea, hoping to reach Gaza soon.

The flotilla's mission is a testament to the enduring spirit of solidarity and resistance in the face of adversity. As the flotilla braves the challenges posed by bad weather and the Israeli blockade, it continues to embody the hope for a better future for the people of Gaza.
