An aid ship carrying humanitarian supplies for Gaza, named Handala, has suddenly gone off the radar, sparking fears of an attack as drones were spotted circling above.
According to international reports, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition confirmed that their ship, which set out to break the Israeli blockade and deliver aid to Gaza, has lost all communication.
In a statement, the coalition said multiple drones were seen around the vessel, raising serious concerns that it may have been intercepted or attacked. They urged the global community and media to speak up and pressure Israel to ensure the ship’s safe passage.
So far, there is no information about the ship’s location, the condition of the crew, or any possible action taken against it.
This isn’t the first time the Freedom Flotilla’s missions have faced danger. On May 2, a drone attack near Malta set one of their ships ablaze, and on June 9, Israeli forces seized another aid boat, “Medeline,” in international waters, detaining 12 people.
The Freedom Flotilla Coalition is made up of various international organizations working to end the blockade on Gaza and deliver aid to the besieged Palestinian people.
