But we still have people there in prison! Two from Morocco, one from Spain, and three Norwegians, Samuel, Eline and Chris.The Norwegian UD seem to have messed up badly, as their release was already secured by our lawyers when Norway stepped in and demanded separate deportation for them! And now they refuse to take responsibility!
And the Trump plan! What an utter absurdity that these people get to dictate the "peace"!

Hello everyone. Sorry for the delay in coming back online, and thank you all for the kind messages! I am back with my mom, trying to rest and land again in this new reality.

They have begun to spray boats with water canons and demanding they stop. And so far there are only four boats confirmed boarded. We are beginning to think they are realizing they don't have time to intercept us all before dawn.

Military Wessels circling around among the flotilla. We hear that two or more of our boats have been boarded, but hard to confirm as most coms are down.

We go into the last night before our ETA in Gaza full of emotions , being so close to our goal after such a long journey in so many senses.
So proud and happpy to be here.Through our commitment to the freedom and dignity of the people of Palestine we have renewed our commitment to humanity.

In more depressing news, our media keeps on falling for the same tricks, providing their full resources to the genocidairs to perform their distractions, their lies and their threats, as they keep on demanding in their "peace" proposals the same ,worse than surrender, conditions that they have been trying to impose with two years of genocide and blanket bombing.

Morning again over the flotilla, all the boats gathered close, after a tense night. Drones all night, some 10 hits with flashbangs plus some 'stinkbombs', some damage to a few boats ,but no injuries. Now people cathcing up on sleep. Imagine this is what every night will look like from now, as we are not stopping, and they can not let us win.

The American veterans say they are flashbangs. We see a fireball, and then hear and feel the boom, but damage is limited to sails and rigging, and eardrums. We have not had one drop on our boat yet, but have seen close to 10.
Distress call put out on VHF chanel 16, labeled 'piracy', wich is accurate. Greek coastguard will not get involved unless injury.

Stars fading in the first light of morning, venus on our port bow. Course is 110*, straight toward Gaza with 650 miles to go.
Drones stayed with us through the night. One boat started taking in water, and had to get another bilge pump transfered to them.

Good morning from the "Mikeno".
The night went without any major events. The flotilla main group together. Some more boats set to join up during the day. Some 750 nautical miles from Gaza
#FreePalastine #globalSumudFlotilla #BreakTheSiege #StoppTheGenocide #Mikeno
Various mechanical and other minor emergencies in the fleet during the night. We are getting good at dealing, but at this point there is not much waiting around anymore for repairs.
No sign of the Israelis, other than them trying to paint us as terrorists online . Wich is more or less expected, but also worrying, thinking about what their response to us will be.

Flotilla has left cap Bon, Tunisia. Starting our last leg of the journey, we are now on course towards Gaza, with some 1200 nautical miles to go.

Another morning in Bizerte...
Logistics and politics so hard all the time. I guess we just have to think of every little thing as part of the push.
