Israeli military forces intercepted and seized the Gaza-bound aid ship Handala, operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, as it attempted to break Israel's blockade of Gaza. The ship, carrying 21 international activists, journalists, and humanitarian supplies, was boarded in international waters and towed to the Israeli port of Ashdod. Several activists, including prominent figures like US union leader Chris Smalls, were reportedly detained, with some alleging mistreatment by Israeli forces. Israel has intercepted multiple such aid missions in recent months, drawing international criticism and sparking legal complaints in the UK. Despite claims by Israel of facilitating humanitarian aid, activists and observers argue that famine and severe shortages persist in Gaza.
