A ship piloted by pro- Palestinian activists that was attempting to break the Israeli blockade of the Gaza Strip is now “safely making” its way to Israel , the Israeli Foreign Ministry announced.

In a statement on X, the foreign ministry referred to the Madleen , the ship operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, as a “selfie yacht” and its passengers, which include activist Greta Thunberg and a minister of the European Parliament, as “celebrities” staging a “media provocation whose sole purpose was to gain publicity.”
