Campaigners have reported that a vessel from a flotilla delivering aid to Gaza has been hit in a suspected drone strike, marking the second such incident within two days. The flotilla aims to challenge Israel’s naval blockade and includes prominent activists, such as Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg, who is actively participating in the mission.
In response to the incident, BBC Verify has conducted an analysis of footage related to the attack and consulted with two weapons experts. These experts indicated that a device discovered on the ship following the strike resembles a grenade.
This incident highlights ongoing tensions and challenges surrounding aid delivery to Gaza. The safety and motives of these operations remain under scrutiny, particularly regarding the increase in reported attacks against humanitarian efforts.
