Some updates from GSF News telegram for today:
Fisherman off the coast of Gaza were able to fish for the first time in months because of the Global Sumud Flotilla’s distraction. The smiles and joy on the faces of these Palestinians has warmed our hearts.
Apparently a flotilla flying isntreal flags has appeared, no info yet on what this is. Link to video
Update on the new Freedom Flotilla
The Freedom Flotilla is set to reach the shores of Gaza within the next 72-96 hours. We will monitor their progression closely, even more so as they get closer to the High Risk Zone.
Protest news:
Mass protests are beginning to erupt all around Europe. A specific focus is on Italy, as people take to the streets in almost every city participating in a General Strike to stand in solidarity with the participants of the Global Sumud Flotilla and the Palestinian People of Gaza.
Italian media is reporting that there is at least 60,000 protesters marching together through the streets of Rome, standing in solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla and the Palestinian People of Gaza. The closure of 75% of the city and roads has been announced.
Head of Italy’s largest union tells media: “Today, the entire country of Italy is an extension of Gaza; We will march throughout the night and all day tomorrow”.
Other updates:
A Greek coast guard vessel has taken position next to the Freedom Flotilla ships, escorting them through International Waters off the coast of Crete.

Mission accomplished, food has been delivered to Gaza despite the demonic cruelty of the IOF
Apparently a flotilla flying isntreal flags has appeared, no info yet on what this is.
I don’t think you could actually find 200 people in “Israel” who are decent and are boat owners, so probably nothing good. Also, the flags.
would be so fucking funny if it was a “freedom floatilla” being sent to israel as a propaganda stunt. “israel needs aid! look what we have to do to get it to them all because of KKKhamas!!!”
Deception, to try to sneak past the IOF? LOL.
Considering the statistics on “Israeli” opinions, doubtful. Low chance there are 200 anti-zionists in the entire country who own boats, never mind 200 who would be willing to use the boats for this.
No, I mean deception by non-“Israelis”, using the zionist flag to try to get the IOF to let them go about their business. I doubt it, and I’d be even more doubtful it would work. But it’s a fun thought.
They set off from within “Israel” (edit: I think). The non-“Israelis” there would be Palestinians, who know that the deception would never work. If they were looking to drastically risk their lives this way, I don’t think they would bother pretending to be “Israeli” nationalists. The simplest explanation is the best, this is a fleet of genocidal nationalists attempting to intimidate Palestinians and their allies.
Yeah, probably.
The Freedom Flotilla is set to reach the shores of Gaza within the next 72-96 hours. We will monitor their progression closely, even more so as they get closer to the High Risk Zone.
Here is some more information about the Turkish mission.

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.
Comments on the marinette stream suggest they’re slowing until daybreak so they don’t get too close in the dark
GSF News.
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.
Does anyone have info on how the change of weather season might increase danger for upcoming flotillas? I thought that GSF was organised somewhat in a hurry because September is the last month before the weather makes it too dangerous to take the journey on sea.
Fall is known to be a very bad month for naval activities in the Mediterranean.
I’d like to know that myself given how rowdy the weather looks on the Marinette stream
Organizers in Spain and Portugal are in the preliminary stages of preparing a second Global Sumud Flotilla mission with even more ships, as requests from ship owners to join the GSF movement grows and requests to join a ship as crew flood in from all around the globe.
The ship Marinette is still going! Livestream here.
Video message from a person aboard.
GSF News:
The Global Sumud Flotilla vessel “Marinette” has reestablished their live stream and contine to sail towards the coast of Gaza on their humanitarian mission to deliver aid to the Palestinian People of Gaza.
We will continue to monitor the Global Sumud Flotilla vessel “Marinette” providing breaking updates on the vessel throughout the night and early morning hours.
We anticipate the captain of the “Marinette” will at some point follow the same plan that the captain of the “Mikeno” used to push further into Gazan territorial waters. This would mean going completely dark; turning off all GPS, transponders, and the livestream. Updates will continue to come.
While she may be alone, the Marinette still being there, actually sailing towards Gaza, is such a huge thing. May they arrive savely, may they be safe, as of now it’s 80 nautical miles to Gaza

‼️ 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.

The 7NM could also be an AIS error. Ship and flight tracking applications and their implementation methods are not immune to errors or spoofing/jamming.

Please, everyone, if you can read this, you can leave a comment on the post linked above. Some words of kindness for a family resisting an ongoing genocide.
If your financial situation allows, you can donate to help them survive. If not, please comment! It doesn’t have to be complicated, just express your love and support! I’m sure it would mean a lot to Soliman and his family!
If not, just leave a comment from the heart, and do what you can to support the cause in other ways. Volunteer, protest, organize by joining local solidarity groups. Solidarity is an act of love, an act of revolutionary defiance of the state of things and they are, and the true basis for progress towards a better world.
Free Palestine! From the river to the sea! End the genocide!

Breaking Now: “The Palestinian-Israeli conflict cannot be resolved without considering the culture of the peoples living there”. - Vladimir Putin, President of Russia.
Opinion: Okay, Vladimir…
lmao
he’s about to go into a 3000-year history lesson on the levant
Would you like to see the documents? I brought copies with me. Read them if you’d like.
94% thought the use of force by the IOF was either appropriate or too little. Only 1.8% believed that they were using too much force, which is not the same as believing that the IOF operation is wrong.

Yup. Worth noting that the poll reported on in your link was from November 2023. It’s been 22 months of genocide, hundreds of thousands of Palestinians killed in Gaza, millions more robbed of their futures, and israeli Jews still want more blood in late 2025. israel is a completely irredeemable society if you ask me.
I mean they are not just suddenly gaining a conscious after nearly a hundred years of dehumanizing and murdering Palestinians.
Thats why the foolish demands of isntreali and palastinian worker to „share“ the „land“ were always morally cowardly and unworkable.
They really libbed it up with that post
Critical support to all libs who put themselves on the line and decide to sail to break the siege on Gaza in small civilian vessels.
It’s a lot more than I for example am doing, with my assumably nuanced understanding of geopolitics.
This isn’t even liberalism, Putin is a piece of shit and a Zionist. He says things like this and does nothing to help. I think lightly mocking him for giving a nothing-speech is only fair.
I don’t really think so, it’s fair to laugh at this Russian liberal clown saying “this can’t be solved without knowing what it is” while doing absolutely nothing to solve it.
Fair, I guess I just interpreted the laugh-reacts as “lolz evil Putler am I right” in the usual liberal sense, not in a super duper smart lefty way. But I might just be too cynical, these people are still doing gods work.
That’s fair. I did too, but then I realized that my reaction was essentially identical so I’ll give whoever manages the channel the benefit of the doubt.
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
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.
