Activists from 44 Countries Plan Largest-Ever Gaza Aid Flotilla in September

A coalition of direct action groups has announced the largest attempt yet by civilians to break the siege on Gaza.

The Global Sumud Flotilla aims to launch dozens of boats carrying humanitarian aid from Spain, Tunisia and elsewhere in early September, with delegates from at least 44 countries on board.

Coordinators, organisers, and participants from the Maghreb Sumud Flotilla, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, Global Movement to Gaza, and the Sumud Nusantara have united under a common goal: to break the illegal siege on Gaza by sea, open a humanitarian corridor, and end the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people.

On August 31st, the group are launching the "biggest attempt ever to break the illegal Israeli siege over Gaza", with dozens of boats sailing from Spain. They will meet dozens more ships on September 4th sailing from Tunisia and other ports.

They are mobilising more than 44 countries on simultaneous demonstrations and actions to break complicity in solidarity with the Palestinian people.

Nelson Mandela’s grandson, Mandla Mandela is among the activists from these 44 countries preparing for the “largest civilian maritime mission to Gaza” to break the siege on Gaza.

They are still looking for qualified captains and crew.
