Irish actor Liam Cunningham has said a flotilla has arrived in Sicily as activists prepare to leave for Gaza in an attempt to break Israel’s blockade, Al Jazeera reports.
The effort has been organised by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC), a movement that seeks to draw attention to and help end the Israeli siege on Gaza.
An earlier attempt to reach Gaza at the beginning of May was aborted after another FFC vessel, the “Conscience”, was attacked by two alleged drones while sailing in international waters off the coast of Malta.
The FFC has accused Israel of being responsible for the attack, which severely damaged the front section of the ship.
