The Global Sumud Flotilla that is sailing to challenge Israel’s blockade of Gaza has announced that its vessels are now around 121 nautical miles (225 kilometres) from the besieged enclave. “Unidentified vessels approached a number of boats in the Flotilla, some with their lights off,” the flotilla said early Wednesday in a statement on Telegram. “The number of drones over our ships has doubled, and jamming of the internet and radio is greater than usual. We are all prepared for the moment of interception, whether tonight or tomorrow,” Wael Naouar, a spokesperson for the flotilla’s Maghreb fleet, said on Facebook earlier.
