Israeli forces intercepted a Gaza-bound aid ship carrying urgently needed supplies, including baby formula, in international waters Saturday night, prompting activists on board to share videos on social media claiming they had been kidnapped.
A YouTube livestream captured the moment armed personnel boarded the Handala, a ship operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) and named after a well-known Palestinian cartoon character. On deck, the 21 activists were captured surrendering as the vessel was intercepted by Israeli forces, according to reporting by CNN.
