Another ship hoping to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza will depart for the Palestinian enclave on Sunday, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition activist group has confirmed, Al Jazeera reports.

The vessel, which the coalition said had been undergoing “final technical preparations”, will leave from Gallipoli, Italy.

“This mission is for the children of Gaza,” the coalition said in a statement. “Until everyday people of conscience challenge Israel’s impunity, their brutal violence will only grow.”
