The Occupation Prepares to Sink Ships… Western battleships and Aircraft Withdraw from the “Steadfastness Flotilla” on the Eve of Its Approach to Gaza
The world is watching, on Wednesday, the fate of the “Steadfastness Flotilla” as it approaches the coasts of Gaza. This comes at a time when Western nations announced the withdrawal of battleships and aircraft that were accompanying it.
Exclusive – Al-Khabar Al-Yemeni:
Activists aboard the flotilla’s ships reported that they are now only a few miles away from the coasts of Gaza City.
The flotilla comprises dozens of ships and hundreds of activists from various countries around the world.
Spain and Italy had withdrawn two battleships that were sailing alongside the flotilla, while Turkey also halted aerial sorties.
Those countries issued warnings to the flotilla regarding the consequences of entering the dangerous area, as the occupation has previously targeted attempts to break the blockade.
The area is approximately 150 miles from the costs of Gaza.
The Israeli occupation began training for multiple scenarios to confront the flotilla, which outnumbers its battleships.
The Israeli Broadcasting Corporation reported that the occupation forces are preparing for operations that include sinking some of the ships.
The head of the occupation government, Benjamin Netanyahu, recently launched a campaign against the flotilla by promoting claims that his entity had obtained information about the flotilla’s relationship with Hamas in an attempt to justify targeting it.
The flotilla is one of several previous attempts to break the blockade that the occupation has imposed on the Strip for over two years.
The Strip is suffering from a deadly hunger crisis that has aroused the world’s indignation.
Approximately 65,000 martyrs have fallen and nearly 200,000 have been injured during the barbaric war waged by the occupation forces. Among them are those who are starving and those suffering from chronic diseases who have been unable to receive treatment within the Strip due to the blockade.
