A Spanish activist aboard one of dozens of vessels sailing toward the Gaza Strip said a ship believed to be military had approached the flotilla, attempting to break Israel’s blockade.
Activist Pablo Quesada Martin wrote on X that a vessel appearing to be military had been spotted near the convoy, leading organisers to activate security protocols.
Israel has previously intercepted and detained activists seeking to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza. Last month, Israeli forces intercepted 22 vessels near the Greek island of Crete.
