Greek Navy Surrounds Flotilla In Territorial Waters

A fleet of fifty-eight ships is moving near the borders of Greece. Fourteen of these vessels are currently operating close to Greek land borders. The group was reportedly traveling toward Gaza and adjusted their course to move toward Greek territorial waters. One crew member on a vessel reported that the crew, consisting of eight people including Malaysian, Italian, Turkish, and Swiss citizens, prepared to discard small knives into the sea to avoid them being classified as weapons by the Israeli navy. The crew member stated they are currently in a stable condition. One vessel reported evading drone surveillance during a night transit toward the Greek border. Authorities have reportedly seized 21 boats, according to the source. Participants observed a military speedboat approaching them before the navy performed a circling maneuver around the vessels. The source noted the group felt they were traveling alone before the encounter.
