Humanitarian Hazard Fleet with 350 activists, including Get Thunberg climate change activists, sailed on Tuesday from Barcelona after the previous day had to return to the harbor.
The organizer, Global Sumud Flotilla Mission, issued a statement in which the decision to break the journey was made to “avoid the risk of complications”, adding that the wind blows at about 56 km / h.
The mission will be launched in two phases – the first from Barcelona, and the other from Tunisia on Thursday.
Activists hope that ships will meet in the Mediterranean Sea before sailing towards Gaza, and the journey will last for a week.
“We sail again to stop the siege and open a humanitarian corridor,” Thunberg said in the video message.
The aim of the mission is to “interrupt the Israeli illegal siege of Gaza,” the organizers said. Previous attempts to arrival to Gaza, the sea intercepted Israeli authorities, including the last flotilla attempt from Thunberg on board.
Activists, including the actor from the throne of Liam Cunningham, are located on a float from a few dozen ships aimed at breaking the Israeli maritime blockade and deliver food and humanitarian advisements, which is devastated by almost a two-year Israeli war.
Israel claims that the maritime blockade imposed in 2007. year necessary to prevent arms smuggling to the Palestinian Militant Group Hamas. Other attempts to break – including the one in which Thunberg in June, described as a propaganda trick in support of Hamas.
