The Israeli military has taken decisive action by intercepting the last boat in an aid flotilla attempting to reach Gaza. This interception occurred on Friday, according to both the flotilla organizers and Israeli army radio, and was the continuation of actions taken just a day before.

The vessel Marinette, which was part of the Global Sumud Flotilla, was stopped approximately 42.5 nautical miles from Gaza. The organizers reported this interception early Friday morning, highlighting the ongoing attempts to reach the blockaded region.

Israeli army radio confirmed that the navy seized control of Marinette, detained the passengers and crew onboard, and escorted the vessel to Ashdod port, enforcing the naval blockade and preventing the aid flotilla from reaching its destination.
