The Israeli government said Sunday that the aid boat carrying Greta Thunberg and other activists will not be allowed to reach the Gaza Strip, warning the protesters to “turn back.”
Defense Minister Israel Katz ordered his troops to maintain Israel’s naval blockade over the Palestinian enclave, which has remained in effect to prevent Hamas from importing weapons.
“To the antisemitic Greta and her fellow Hamas propagandists — I will say this clearly: You should turn back, because you will not make it to Gaza,” Katz warned.
“Israel will act decisively against any attempt to break the blockade or support terrorist organizations, whether by sea, air or land,” he added.
Thunberg, the Swedish climate campaigner, is among 12 activists aboard the Madleen vessel heading for Gaza to challenge Israel’s blockade and deliver humanitarian aid to the Strip’s refugee population.
Israel’s blockade has remained in place since Hamas seized power over the Gaza Strip in 2007.
The UN reports a growing humanitarian crisis and risk of famine to Gaza’s nearly 2 million refugees — prompting international outrage and the Madleen’s voyage.
The ship departed Sicily last week to raise awareness over the crisis facing Gaza, with the Jewish state repeatedly warning the activists to stay away.
The ship is expected to reach Gaza’s coast on Sunday, with Brazilian activist Thiago Ávila claiming earlier in the day that their ship had been targeted by Israeli jamming devices.

Thank you very much and God bless you.
Send her to Davey Jones Locker.
Or torpedoes.
“The Navy’s personnel have received clear instructions: the sailors will call on the flotilla’s organizers to turn around. If they do so, they will be sent on their way. If they do not, Shayetet 13 commandos will take over the ship and sail it to the port of Ashdod.”
Let her stay in Gaza.
Apparently, the climate scam is no longer bringing in the bucks. The little toad is now trying antisemitism. She’s one of those people like David Hogg, who was manufactured into “relevance” and has now exceeded her best-by. This manufactured celebrity is like achieving critical mass. At some point it becomes self-sustaining. She’s relevant because people see the name and click on the media. It’s similar to the marketing formulae where if you spend X in advertising, you can sell anything, and you’ll get Y back in profit. It was a marketing formula, and the proof was The Pet Rock. We, the public, are suckers.
Excellent.
That’s good because the media would make a complete circus out of it.
The horror, the horror.
Turkey will probably offer that vessel safe harbor, the way E-Dog (Pres. Erdogan) did a few years ago. Whatever Israel wants, Erdogan does not want it. Just that simple.
Contact bearing 235, 5 thousand yards.
How dare she.
Do the world a favor and sink Greta’s ship. Of course, they would fish her out of the water…but sinking the ship would be good.
She hasn’t gotten there yet? WTF? Is she on a scenic cruise?
I believe they left Catania Monday. Ulysses would have made it to Gaza by now. Maybe they stopped in Corfu or Mykonos?!
She's definitely taking the scenic route on someone else's money.
