As the flotilla is getting closer to Gaza, it needs attention of everyone as the Israeli occupation navy is planning to intercept it..

🚨 BREAKING: Global Sumud Flotilla Surrounded by Israeli Warboats

[Arnaud Bertrand @RnaudBertrand]

I don't think people are realizing what's happening with the Global Sumud Flotilla: it's potentially becoming extremely consequential.

Fact is, at this stage the flotilla is effectively escorted by multiple warships from 3 major countries: Spain, Italy and Turkyie.

The warships are all nominally there to "assist" and "rescue" the flotilla in case shit happens - that's the official story - BUT:
- They obviously have a very strong deterrence effect, so Israel will think twice before attacking
- I frankly cannot believe they wouldn't act if the flotilla gets attacked as this would be a major PR disaster for the governments in questions: your own citizens (including some MPs) getting attacked by Israel in front of your eyes in international waters (or Palestine territorial waters) and you watch it happen from your warship? Hard to see this happen, this is politically suicidal for a government.
- Logically speaking, why send actual warships if you haven't accepted the possibility there might be a confrontation? As the old military adage goes "don't draw your sword unless you're prepared to use it": if it was purely about assistance and rescue, they could have sent coastguard boats for instance. The "rescue and assist" framing is probably about plausible deniability to retain the most flexibility in the actions they can take, and in narrative management.

I'm not sure what's going to happen but as far as I can see there are 3 options:
1) Israel doesn't attack, the flotilla reaches Gaza, which means the blockade is breached and which is a major precedent
2) Israel attacks and the warships of all 3 nations let it happen, which will create a major public opinion disaster
3) Israel attacks and the warships fight them, and you effectively have war between NATO countries and Israel

I think you'll agree that whatever happens, it's consequential no matter what. What I suspect is that the governments in question are betting on Israel blinking first but that they're willing to follow through if Israel calls their bluff, they wouldn't have deployed the warships otherwise.

This is a threat

[Thiago Ávila 1️⃣8️⃣8️⃣8️⃣ @thiagoavilabr]

⚠️🚨 URGENT!!!
An Israeli military vessel just came across our boats intimidating, damaging our communication systems and doing very dangerous manouvers circling our lead boats ALMA and SIRIUS!

Despite the loss of electronic devices, no one has been injured and we KEEP ON GOING!

Insane how the media completely ignores this

5 HUMANITARIAN BOATS HAVE BEEN ATTACKED IN INTERNATIONAL WATERS.

[YourFavoriteGuy☭ @guychristensen_]

Fuck you guys. Nobody believes your bullshit propaganda labelling everyone Hamas.

Those ships are full of aid for the Palestinians of Gaza and are carrying many of my friends.

ALL EYES ON THE GLOBAL SUMUD FLOTILLA. PROTECT OUR ACTIVISTS.

[Francesca Albanese, UN Special Rapporteur oPt @FranceskAlbs]

❗️ALERT❗️@gbsumudflotilla has been attacked 7 times in a short span! Boats hit with sound bombs, explosive flares, and sprayed with suspected chemicals. Radios jammed, calls for help blocked. Immediate international attention AND PROTECTION required!
Hands off the Flotilla!

This should be headline news, but these babies are Palestinian.

A woman beheaded by an Israeli strike, nine months pregnant. “We had to deliver her by emergency C-section… luckily, the baby girl survived.”

[Furkan Gözükara @FurkanGozukara]

This is WILD. Ben & Jerry's own co-founder says their parent company, Unilever, is SILENCING them from speaking out against "the genocide in Gaza."

He's literally on the street protesting to get his company's soul back.

A sad Malaysia Day as a fellow Malaysian is found dead in a car boot.

Malayan tigers (Panthera tigris jacksoni) are already facing habitat loss all across their historical range, will poaching pressure be the reason we lose our most iconic species?

[CEASEFIRE NOW🏳️‍🌈 🍉 @Sivavmn]

Recently I found out my colleague got MARA to UK because his mother works in Dubai and didn’t declare her income.

I said he stole the place from a poor person. The way his face changed.

You guys don’t make privileged people uncomfortable enough.

[B.M. @ireallyhateyou]

This girl was actually murdered by IDF commander Barak Hiram, who ordered tank fire on the house she was at, after she begged the *soldiers* to save her.
