Organizers stated the activists intended to break the blockade after their vessels were surrounded. Approximately 1,000 activists are traveling by boat with the goal of reaching the Gaza Strip. Dozens of boats carrying approximately 1,000 activists have been traveling in the Mediterranean toward the Gaza Strip since mid-April. A report indicates that 20 boats were brought peacefully toward Israel, involving the Ministry of Public Affairs.
