Aid volunteers say they are organizing a new flotilla to try to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza early in the fall.
Free Gaza Movement spokeswoman Greta Berlin said on Thursday that her group is working with the European Campaign to End the Siege to send at least three aid ships to Gaza in September or October. She said the Turkish Humanitarian Aid Foundation (İHH) charity is welcome to join the flotilla. She said another cargo ship with a dozen activists aboard including Nobel Peace Prize laureate Mairead Maguire is steaming toward Gaza and should arrive “early next week.”
