Climate activist Greta Thunberg joins aid ship sailing to Gaza aimed at breaking Israel's blockade
Briefly

Greta Thunberg and 11 activists set sail from Catania, Italy, on a mission to break Israel's blockade of Gaza to deliver aid and raise awareness of the humanitarian crisis. The sailing vessel Madleen seeks to highlight the dire situation faced by Gaza's 2 million residents amidst restricted access and potential famine. Thunberg emphasized the importance of resilience in activism despite risks, calling indifference a far greater danger. Notable crew members include actor Liam Cunningham and MEP Rima Hassan, who has faced entry barriers due to her political stance.
"We are doing this because, no matter what odds we are against, we have to keep trying... Because the moment we stop trying is when we lose our humanity."
"The moment we stop trying is when we lose our humanity. And no matter how dangerous this mission is, it's not even near as dangerous as the silence of the entire world in the face of the live-streamed genocide."
