Greta Thunberg’s 44-boat aid flotilla to Gaza has been forced to halt after yet another mishap, just two days after setting off from a Greek port where it had docked for repairs.
The fleet is edging closer towards the Gaza Strip, where it hopes to break through Israel’s naval blockade of the Palestinian territory in order to deliver humanitarian aid. After stopping on Friday in Greece due to difficult weather conditions and logistical challenges, the flotilla of more than 500 volunteers set sail again on Sunday, boat organisers said.
