Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni ordered the stopping of the fleet that was sailing towards Gaza, fearing that the aid could affect the American peace plan.

Giorgia Meloni has ordered that the Global Sumud flotilla, which was heading to Gaza with humanitarian aid, be stopped, fearing that it could disrupt an American plan to end the conflict between Israel and Hamas. The flotilla, which includes over 500 people, is being accompanied by an Italian frigate and is on alert due to drone activity in the area. Meloni emphasized that any attempt to break the Israeli naval blockade could destabilize the fragile situation in the region. Israel has requested that aid be delivered through an Israeli port.
