Greta Thunberg’s flotilla carrying humanitarian aid toward Gaza was struck by a drone in Tunisian waters, its organizers said late Monday.
Crew members said the drone hit Global Sumud Flotilla’s (GSF) main vessel when its was anchored outside the port of Sidi Bou Said in Tunisia. The boat sustained damage to its main deck and below-deck storage, according to footage published on X by the GSF.
Nobody on board was harmed.
“The family boat has been officially attacked. The drone came right above it, released the bomb, and it exploded and the boat was on fire. Everyone on that boat is okay … they have bombed a boat, once again, with civilians on it. In Tunisian territory,” said Yasemin Acar, one of the six activists who was on board.
