Update: The new flotilla, Freedom Flotilla - Thousand Madleens to Gaza & Conscience website and livestream:
From the Global Sumud Flotilla telegram:
👀 As we approach the high risk ‘orange zone’ we need eyes on the Flotilla ❗️
Witness provides protection.

I fucking hate how the bravest, kindest people in the world get treated as criminals while absolute ghouls like Netanyahu are admired and respected.
Novara media reporting spontaneous protests in Belgium, Greece, and Germany so far
Italian unions calling for a general strike friday
Spontaneous manifestations in Switzerland as well.
Adding Barcelona and Istanbul to the assumed list.
Worth pointing out, if you’re feeling a bit disappointed that the Mikeno didn’t quite make it, don’t see it as a failure. The fact we’re even a little disappointed shows how much the flotilla raised the bar! A few weeks ago coming anywhere near the shore would have seemed impossible. What an incredible achievement. Every stage of this flotilla has been an inspirational victory for humanity.
Bringing together all those people from all around the world. Actually getting 50 vessels in the water. Getting 40 to the “red line”. Refusing to stop. The Mikeno getting so close to Gaza that they could literally almost see it. Inspiring the world, bringing protests out around the world in support.
Like the prison break on October 7th, this shows the entire world that the myth of the all-seeing, all-powerful Zionist project is built on pillars of sand. A few dedicated heroes in some barely seaworthy boats came within a bee’s dick of breaking their 20 year blockade.
The Sumud had more victories than we can count. Any Zionist thinking they “won” this engagement is, as usual, completely deluded.
Great point, only thing I would add is this:
This is not the last. This success will inspire others, and the next flotilla will be larger. Who knows how much larger, but we saw last night that Israel could barely keep up with 50 boats. Israel may get aggressive, but then that triggers a whole new monster of the world they’ll have to deal with.
Call from the Global Sumud Flotilla:
It’s time to shut it down for a FREE PALESTINE.
The Israeli attack on the Global Sumud Flotilla has begun. The time to respond is NOW.
Hit the streets: shut down embassies, parliaments and corporations complicit in manufacturing in the genocide.
‼️ Breaking Now: It is with heavy hearts and sadness that we announce the Global Sumud Flotilla vessel "Mikeno" was seized by the Israeli Navy.
The captain, a hero, defied direct Israeli orders to shut his engine down and seize progression. He then went completely dark, shutting off all electronics and maneuvering past their blockade. The "Mikeno" made it within 7NM of the coast of Gaza. The ship was then intercepted, seized, and boarded by naval commandos deployed from multiple Israeli warships with drones flying overhead.

sensitive information about flotilla operations
suspected sabotage on the flotilla
trueanon interview with david adler leaked information that there was a suspected saboteur on the boat.
the suspected individual had been on 3 boats with motor failures. Adler says his own boat suffered excessive fuel loss, stripped parts (most likely stripped threads on a bolt/nut) and, engine failure.
the suspected individual would go on another boat, then off the flotilla.
On MEE someone was saying the family boat mechanical failure was suspected sabotage whilst docked for repairs, lots of non-flotilla people coming and going during the repairs
Update from the live feed: It seems IOF is hosing the boats and trying to force them into a single line of boats, but they don't have enough hoses to continuously hose all of them at once so once they stop with one boat and move to the next boat the other boats keep moving towards Gaza.
I've heard singing and the people talking to the camera seem to be in good spirits right now.
the problem with colonialism is you eventually run out of other people’s hoses
Intercepting a food aid convoy on Yom Kippur is extra bonus fucked
High double digits of people kidnapped already just based on 3 confirmed interceptions.
Israel also killed 60+ people in Palestine today.

Breaking Now: Israeli media reports police have interrogated dozens of participants in the Global Sumud Flotilla fleet and referred them to Katziout Prison in the Negev desert.
The fascists have reportedly transferred some of the flotilla activists to one of their apartheid concentration camps.
Israeli forces detain more than 200 people in flotilla from 37 countries
Global Sumud Flotilla spokesperson Saif Abukeshek has provided a “mission update” in a post on Instagram, confirming that Israeli forces have intercepted 13 boats at sea.
Abukeshek said there were more than 201 people from 37 countries on those boats, including 30 participants from Spain; 22 from Italy; 21 from Turkey; and 12 from Malaysia.
He said the group’s “mission is going on” despite the arrests and vessels are continuing to sail “through the Mediterranean to break the siege on Gaza”.
“We have around 30 ships that are still fighting their way away from the military vessels of the occupation forces trying to reach to the shores of Gaza. They are determined. They are motivated, and they are doing everything within their hand to be able to break this [siege] by early morning and to arrive together,” he said.
This feels like a tipping point. The whole world is watching and I know this sick country is going to go too far. 
Latest trueanon has an interview with someone on the flotilla.
Real chads, fuck Israel until it doesn't exist anymore and free Palestine, for ever.
These people are heroes, I can't even fathom how much courage it takes to face down the IOF not just once, but several times as is the case with some of the activists.
I'm sure this will not be the last, not by a long shot, but I am concerned about the future of the next flotillas. As they increase in size, they will certainly have better odds of actually making it to the shore, but the increase in size also comes with an increased risk of infiltration and sabotage, two things these zionist demons are very keen on.
In a recent episode of TrueAnon, David Adler said that there was already a suspected saboteur, so I imagine this could become a worse problem, and might even involve smuggling in stuff to try and make the flotilla an "acceptable" target of lethal force.
Israelis spraying vessels with water cannons and saying over the radio “stop the engines and we stop the water”.
This absolute legend: video
Little motor on the Marinette realized shit was getting dire and decided to motor up and power through. Boat is a legend too as far as I'm concerned
very relaxing to watch tbh, hopefully it stays that way and nothing happens to them. fuck israel
Mango getting the water cannon treatment and now calls to "stop the motor"
Meanwhile looks like people are in the streets already.
Heard some "Free Palestine" chants by two boats in the livestream, presumably towards an IDF boat
Seems to me the Zios basically did a decapitation strike of the larger/command vessels, perhaps hoping that would encourage others to stop. So far that isn’t working. Since then there’s been no confirmed intercepts for a few hours, my speculation is they have a few boats harassing vessels trying to force them to stop or at least slow them down. My guess is the IOF piracy brigade doesn’t haven’t the manpower to kidnap 50 boats at once.
too many zoomer colonels who can't drive boat
500 or so people at a snap rally have taken the biggest street in Sydney Australia, cops lost control completely

Breaking Now: Members of Parliament in Mexico have called for President Claudia Sheinbaum to follow the Colombian President and expel all Israeli diplomats as well as end all Israeli infrastructure projects in the country. This would be a major blow as Israeli companies control 75% of the tourism ports for cruises in Mexico.

Breaking Now: Israeli naval forces approached and opened fire on the beach in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza.
The illegal settler colonial outpost has no right to intercept the lifesaving aid offered by the flotilla to the starving Palestinian people. The entity is not even a country so it has no maritime borders to defend. The only thing left to do is for all the leadership of the entity and the US state propping it up to surrender themselves to international courts for war crimes prosecution.
Anyone know what the numbers I occasionally hear them say on the livestream mean? a while ago they were yelling 103 between boats iirc and I just heard an excited "48??!"

You can tell the entity is terrified. They want this out of the news as fast as possible. Too bad the ships won't stop coming.
