GAZA FLOTILLA: Activist group says a drone hit a Gaza aid boat in Tunisia; authorities deny attack
An international activist group seeking to deliver aid to Gaza on a flotilla says one of its boats was hit by what it believes was a drone while docked in Tunisia.AP reports, Tunisian authorities denied a drone was involved and said they are investigating a fire in a life jacket aboard the boat.
The Global Sumud Flotilla said in a statement overnight that a vessel known as the “Family Boat,” traveling under a Portuguese flag, “was struck by a drone,” but that no one aboard was hurt.
Footage posted on the group’s social media showed a flash of light landing on one of the boats and setting off what appears to be a fire.
The group, whose flotilla was scheduled to leave Tunisia on Wednesday, is expected to give a news conference in Tunis later Tuesday about what happened. It said the incident would not derail its mission to deliver aid to Gaza.
The flotilla is part of a broad movement seeking to deliver aid to Gaza by boat.
The Family Boat was carrying the most famous members of the flotilla, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg and former Barcelona mayor Ada Colau. It is still unclear who was on board during the reported attack.
