Israeli naval forces intercepted the Global Sumud Flotilla, carrying 500 activists and humanitarian aid from Barcelona to Gaza, in international waters on October 1, 2025.
The flotilla, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, was diverted after Israeli authorities warned of an active combat zone and used water cannons to enforce the stop.
Thunberg and all passengers were reported safe and healthy.
Israel cited security concerns and ongoing maritime restrictions, while activists and legal experts debated the legality of the interception beyond the 12-nautical-mile zone.
