Flotilla Sumud denounces a new "drone attack" in Tunisia

"Another ship has been attacked in an alleged drone attack. No one has been injured," the ship said on its X social network account.

The Sumud flotillari Gaza has again been attacked by a drone at the port of Sidi Bou Said in Tunisia (north-east coast), according to social media reports.

"Another ship has been attacked in an alleged drone attack. No one has been injured," the ship said on its X social network account.

This is the second attack on a flotilla ship after the organization reported a drone fire on the Family ship, one of the main ships, in the early morning of Tuesday, which was denied by the Tunisian authorities shortly thereafter.

The second incident took place just before midnight on Wednesday on the British-flagged ship Alma and caused a fire in the rear, which has been lightly "extinguished".

"These attacks have taken place as the Israeli offensive against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip intensifies and is an attempt at orchestration to distract and derail our mission," the organization said in a statement.

The two ships affected belong to the fleet that left Spain in early September and was anchored in a port in Tunisia, pending the resumption of the crossing to Gaza on Wednesday.

Members of the second ship reported on social media that this was a "second attack" in just over 24 hours.

"The device is still here, so no one can deny what happened," Italian-Egyptian singer and activist Leila Hegazy said on her Instagram account.

"The Global Sumud Flotilla remains paralyzed, the peaceful journey we are making to break Israel's illegal siege of Gaza and maintain unwavering solidarity with its people is progressing decisively and decisively," the organization said after the two riots.
