The humanitarian ship Madleen, carrying activist Greta Thunberg and 12 other passengers, was intercepted by Israeli authorities off the coast of Israel as it tried to reach Gaza, where the humanitarian situation is critical. The Israeli foreign ministry said the passengers are expected to return to their home countries. Israel justified the action on the grounds that the ship was attempting to breach the Gaza sea blockade, citing security risks linked to the transfer of arms to Hamas. Political leaders and activist organizations denounced Israel's actions as provocative and a violation of human rights.
