Lead boat of Gaza-bound humanitarian flotilla, carrying Madleen crew including Thunberg, bombed and set on fire near Tunisia

The lead boat of the Gaza-bound humanitarian ‘Global Sumud Flotilla – the boat carrying members, including climate activist Greta Thunberg, from the voyage of the Madleen, the Freedom Flotilla vessel attacked and seized by Israel, along with its crew – has been bombed by a drone in Tunisian waters and set on fire.

The fire was contained and the crew is safe, but the attack – there is no real doubt who committed it – again displays the arrogance and lawlessness of the terror state of Israel, which is determined to prevent the flotilla of more than fifty boats reaching the shores of Gaza to break Israel’s criminal blockade that is starving almost two million Palestinian people of the enclave, with more than half a million in the final, deadly stages of famine.
