Gaza-bound aid boat Handala is seen approaching to Israeli port of Ashdod escorted by the army.

In a dramatic escalation, Israeli forces intercepted and boarded the Gaza-bound civilian aid ship Handala in international waters, cutting live video feeds mid-broadcast. The vessel, carrying unarmed activists, medics, and parliamentarians from 12 countries, was part of the Freedom Flotilla mission aimed at breaking Israel’s blockade on Gaza. Moments before the hijacking, passengers sat peacefully on deck, raising their hands and singing the anti-fascist anthem Bella Ciao. All communication was lost shortly after. Human rights groups have condemned the operation as a violation of international law. This marks the third Israeli interception of a humanitarian mission this year.

Yemen’s Houthi forces fired a hypersonic Palestine-2 missile at Israel’s technology hub in Be’er Sheva, targeting the nation’s commercial and tech center. Spokesman Yahya Saree claimed the strike achieved its objectives, warning of further escalations if Israel continues its war on Gaza. Houthi drones also hit Eilat, Ashkelon, and Hadera, spanning Israel’s south, west, and north. With over 59,500 Palestinians killed in Gaza, Houthis have intensified multi-front attacks and blockades. Israel has responded with airstrikes on Houthi-controlled ports, fueling a rapidly expanding regional conflict.

Hamas has fiercely condemned Israel’s limited humanitarian airdrops in Gaza, branding them a “deceptive” ploy to manage — not end — starvation in the besieged enclave. The Palestinian group accused Tel Aviv of using such aid theatrics to mask ongoing war crimes, including the blockade that has led to over 122 starvation deaths — 83 of them children. As the food crisis deepens, with over 100,000 children at risk, Gaza’s Government Media Office has warned of a catastrophic famine.
Meanwhile, therapeutic food supplies are almost exhausted, threatening thousands more. Australia’s Prime Minister Anthony Albanese has declared the Israeli siege in violation of international law. At least 11 displaced people were injured after aid parcels fell on tents. Since October 7, 2023, over 59,733 Palestinians — mostly women and children — have been killed in Gaza, with 144,477 injured. The siege, starvation, and blockade continue — and so does the international outcry.

Europe’s powerful ‘E3’—Germany, France, and the UK—are signaling a major diplomatic rift with the U.S. and Israel over the Gaza crisis. After criticizing Israel’s blockade of aid and civilian deaths, France has recognized Palestine, while the UK has pledged recognition without a timeline. Germany’s Chancellor Merz hinted at a coordinated Middle East policy, fueling speculation of a NATO split. As public protests grow across Europe, E3 leaders are pressured to take a tougher stance on Gaza, potentially exposing U.S.–Israel hypocrisy on the conflict.

The Freedom Flotilla Coalition has launched a daring new mission to Gaza with its latest vessel, Handala, departing from Siracusa, Italy. This voyage comes just weeks after the Israeli Navy seized the Madleen, a British-flagged aid ship, and detained its 12 unarmed crew members in international waters.
Now, with international solidarity behind them, activists are risking it all again to break the deadly and illegal blockade of Gaza. Their message? Aid is not a crime. Silence is complicity. Onboard the Handala are international human rights defenders — including members of France’s left-wing LFI party — ready to face armed interception in hopes of reaching Gaza's besieged population.
As Israel tightens its grip, the sea becomes the last lifeline. This isn’t just a mission — it’s a message.
