The Israeli navy intercepted the last vessel of the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) in the Mediterranean Sea on Friday, Israel's state-owned Kan TV News channel reported.
The GSF, comprising dozens of vessels with more than 400 volunteers from over 40 countries, aimed to challenge Israel's naval blockade and deliver food and medical aid to Palestinians in Gaza.
According to the Israeli Foreign Ministry and Israeli media, all passengers were transferred "safely" and "in good health" to the port of Ashdod in southern Israel. Israel said it would deport the volunteers to Europe. (Photo by Jamal Awad/Xinhua)
