The flotilla to Gaza is expected to reach the shores of Gaza tomorrow, and its members, including Greta Thunberg and Game of Thrones star Liam Cunningham, are "preparing for a live broadcast of the arrest by IDF forces."

This was reported today (Sunday). In Israel, it was decided not to allow the ship, named "Madeline," to reach the shores of the Gaza Strip. One of the activists on the ship claimed that Israel is disrupting its navigation systems.Defense Minister Israel Katz: "To the anti-Semitic Greta and her friends, I say clearly. You'd better turn back - because you will not reach Gaza."

In an interview with the "Sunday Times," Thunberg said that the activists of the "Freedom Flotilla" are in a "cheerful mood" as they approach the Strip. On the ship are 12 pro-Palestinian activists from Britain, France, Sweden and other countries, including French Member of the European Parliament Rima Hassan, who described the massacre of October 7 as a "legitimate action."

Hassan wrote on her X account that "the Israeli army plans to intercept the ship and capture it by deploying missile ships and naval commando forces from Flotilla 13."
