There is no greater insult to sport — and to humanity itself — than letting Israel parade in international tournaments while carrying out genocide.

US actor Mark Ruffalo: The famine in Gaza was designed by Israel to kill civilians.

Day 6 flotilla update: the horrific news from Gaza City is making everyone more determined.

We have chocolates and toys 🫶

Dear media, It’s not a “ground incursion, an “expanded offensive, or a “military operation. Palestinians aren’t “evacuating,” “moving,” or “leaving.” It’s not a “conflict,” a “crisis,” or a “war.” It’s genocide. Israel is committing GENOCIDE. Stop whitewashing it, report it.

Alarming to see Israeli propaganda painting the civilians onboard the Global Sumud Flotilla as terrorists. Our government and the international community must be clear that any action taken against civilians will be met with the harshest possible consequences.

WTF?

There are 13 British nationals on the flotilla, and at least three boats sailing under the British flag, including two of those attacked already tonight. If you're in the UK, please contact the FCDO, the foreign secretary and the prime minister, and tell them to make it clear

DO SOMETHING BEFORE WE'RE MURDERED!

Fantastic moral leadership from my friend Bell Ribeiro-Addy MP, an outspoken voice for Palestine. Our lives are being threatened daily by Israel. Please share widely and keep up the pressure on your government. Thank you 🇵🇸

It clearly says “baby milk” on it. It’s formula they are hoping will wash up on the shores of Gaza because Israel are deliberately starving babies to death

If you’re watching this I have been illegally detained by Israel, for trying to deliver baby formula, food and medicine to Gaza. Demand our government uphold international law and hold Israel to account.

baby formula sinking to the bottom of the ocean in international waters 60 nautical miles from the site of mass starvation. this shames the world

We have the receipts you liars. This was shot on 10 September in Tunisia by my colleague Kieran Andrieu who you are now illegally detaining.

The #Flotilla didnt get through but by a small miracle, the distraction of the boats on the IOF, it gave the Palestinians enough time to fish. Yes that is correct, Palestinians are not allowed to fish in their own waters without being shot so this is a small victory
