The 12 -person crew, which includes climate activist Greta Thonberg, expects to take seven days to reach Gaza.

FRIDOL FLOTILLA is the international non -profit organization (FFC) that one of its ships left Sicily to provide humanitarian aid to Gaza, after a previous attempt to attack a unmanned attack on a different ship in the Mediterranean, the FREDOM FLOTILLA says the international non -profit organization (FFC).

The 12 people crew, which includes Swedish Climate activist Greta ThonbergIrish actor Liam Keningham and Franco-Palestinian, MEP Rima Hassan, from Madeleen from the Catania port on Sunday, carry barrels of relief supplies that the group called “limited quantities, although they are symbolic.”

The journey comes after another bowl run by the group, conscience, Two drones Outside the regional Maltese water in early May. While FFC said Israel was responsible for the accident, it did not respond to the requests for comment.

“We do this because regardless of the possibilities we face, we have to continue to try, because the moment when we stop trying is when we lose our humanity,” Thonberg told reporters at a press conference before leaving. The Swedish climate activist was due to a conscience.

She added, “Regardless of the danger of this task, it is not anywhere near the silence of the whole world in the face of the life that is being worn.”

Activists expect to take seven days to reach their destination, if they are not stopped.

The Federal Communications Committee (FCC), which was launched in 2010, is a non -violent international movement that supports the Palestinians, which combines humanitarian aid with the political protest against the siege on Gaza.

He said the trip “is not charitable. This is a non -violent and direct act to challenge Israel’s illegal siege and escalating war crimes.”

UN agencies and major relief groups say Israeli restrictions, the collapse of law and order, and looting on a large scale makes it very difficult to provide help to about two million people in Gaza.

The United Nations said on Friday that the situation in Gaza was in its worst cases since the war between Israel and Hamas began 19 months ago.

Under the growing global pressure, Israel ended a 11-week blockade in Gaza on May 19, which allowed very limited operations led by UN-LED.

On Monday, a new way to distribute aid was launched: the Gaza Humanitarian Corporation, supported by the United States and Israel, but with United Nations and international relief groups refuse to work with themHe said he is not neutral and has a distribution model that imposes the displacement of the Palestinians.

The Federal Communications Committee (FCC) is the latest among the increasing number of critics who accused Israel from the genocide in its war in Gaza, which are allegations that Israel strongly denies.

Activist Thiago Avila said: “We are penetrating the siege of Gaza by sea, but this is part of a broader strategy of mobilization that will also try to break the siege by land,” said activist Thiago Avila.

Avila also mentioned the upcoming global march to Gaza-an open international initiative for doctors, lawyers and media members-which is scheduled to leave Egypt and reach his Rafah crossing in mid-June to organize a protest there, and called on Israel to stop the Gaza attack and re-describe the border.
