Israel has intercepted several vessels of the Gaza aid flotilla and diverted them to an Israeli port, the foreign ministry said on Wednesday.
In a statement, the ministry said, “Already several vessels of the Hamas-Sumud flotilla have been safely stopped and their passengers are being transferred to an Israeli port.”
Among those on board was Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg. The ministry shared a post on X saying she and other passengers were “safe and healthy,” alongside a video that appeared to show Thunberg with masked and armed Israeli personnel.
This is a developing story. It will be updated.
