This is the equipment that they have for a 2,500 km voyage across the Mediterranean.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The flotilla is comprised of people from 44 countries and now approximately 45+ boats.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The flotilla is carrying humanitarian supplies like, baby formula, water, medicines, sanitary products, and food.<\/p>\n\n\n\n On August 31 \u2013 left Barcelona, Spain; now in the flotilla is in the \u2018orange zone\u2019 (high risk zone)<\/p>\n\n\n\n There have been many challenges from severe weather conditions, severely damaged boats that couldn\u2019t continue, jammed communication lines, and drone attacks. All the participants on the flotilla remain committed whether by land or sea to break the siege on Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n There have been threats by the Israeli government, that most likely will be carried out in a day or two in international waters (which are supposed to be safe waters)<\/p>\n\n\n\n The flotilla has support world wide \u2013 from Italian Dockworkers calling for a general strike and massive demos in Italy. In Tunisia, Spain, France and many other countries.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Clarification of countries protecting & aiding the flotilla<\/strong><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Spain is the only country that is currently offering support all the way to Gaza. The Spanish Navy Ship, Furor, is 10-12 nautical miles behind the flotilla and its role is to be available to assist the flotilla in case Israel attacks.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Italian Navy\u2019s frigate Alpino is currently following the flotilla but is scheduled to cease its escort on Tuesday, September 30th, after sending an alert to the flotilla\u2019s vessels.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Greece stated that it will guarantee the safe sailing of boats currently in its waters, its foreign minister said on Thursday, adding that Athens had informed Israel that Greek citizens were in the flotilla. They will not be following the flotilla to Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Turkey helped evacuate activists aboard after one of the vessels broke down and began taking on water and also distributed additional humanitarian aid to the flotilla. Turkey will not be sending a navy ship to follow the flotilla to Gaza.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Sources: Anadalou Ajansi, Reuters, ANSA, AP<\/p>\n\n\n\n There are daily posts on The Global Sumud Flotilla site on Instagram about what is happening in Palestine and on the flotilla.
