Jerusalem, 3 October, 2025 (TPS-IL) — Another flotilla is now heading towards the Gaza Strip according to social media posts by the Sumud Flotilla. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition has confirmed that a boat named “Conscience” departed Italy on Wednesday carrying around 100 people who describe themselves as activists. The group claims that many of the passengers are also “healthcare workers and journalists”.
Another eight boats have set sail from Italy nearly a week ago and according to live tracking over the internet, the nine ships are currently near Crete.
At the same time, the Sumud Flotilla X accounts reports that a second flotilla of 45 boats has left the port of Arsuz in Turkey for Gaza hosting a video to support this. However, it has not yet been officially confirmed whether the boats shown are indeed heading for Gaza.
