The flotilla that left Barcelona for Gaza has had to return because of bad weather
As a result of the rough sea, the ships were unable to advance and will continue along the coast of Barcelona until conditions have improved.
The twenty ships that sailed this Sunday with humanitarian aidfrom Barcelona to Gaza have been unable to advance due to the great storm and have had to return to the coast of Barcelona.
The Global Sumud Flotilla, consisting of 22 ships from 44 countries and more than 300 people, departed yesterday for Gaza to denounce the genocide and blockade of Israel and to bring food and medicine.
The rough sea has prevented ships from moving off the coast. The organisers plan to resume the route when weather conditions permit, probably in coordination with the second round of ships departing from Tunisia and other parts of the Mediterranean on 4 September.
On Sunday, about 5,000 people gathered in the Moll de la Fusta to bid farewell to the flotilla, where activists and personalities Greta Thunberg, Ada Colau, Liam Cunningham, Eduard Fernández and Tadhg Hickey were supported.
Basque delegation
A Basque delegation is participating in the humanitarian flotilla and the Global Movement for Gaza Euskal Herria platform has announced that the Basques four will participate in the ships, but they have preferred not to give the identity of the participants "for safety, which is dangerous because of possible reprisals by Israel".
From politics EH Bilduwent to Barcelona to support the international flotilla.
"The Palestinian cause is our cause; it is the cause of all peoples fighting freely to decide their future," Amancay Villalba, a member of parliament, stressed.
