Meeting at sea to challenge the illegal siege on Gaza | May 14, 2026

We aren't an aid organization - we're sailing to break the blockade.

After finishing repairs and resupplying, we launched our five Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) boats yesterday to sail onwards to Gaza. While these vessels carry symbolic amounts of food and medicine, we are not an aid organization. We sail in defiance of a brutal and unlawful blockade designed to isolate, imprison, and persecute Palestinians in Gaza, and in rejection of the international community’s failure to stop Israel’s ongoing crimes against the Palestinian people.

Yesterday the FFC launched five vessels — Adalah, Kyriakos X, Lina Al Nabulsi, PERSEVERANCE and Tenaz Love Aqsa Bangladesh — from a Greek island, to join the broader international flotilla effort to break Israel’s illegal siege of Gaza and challenge the impunity enabling genocide, starvation, and the wholesale erasure of the Palestinian people. Today our boats joined approximately 55 additional boats that departed from Marmaris, Türkiye in a historic meeting at sea https://www.facebook.com/share/v/1JQiap7xJp/.

Since 2010, the FFC has organized and sailed dozens of vessels in direct challenge to Israel’s unlawful naval blockade, building on the historic missions of the Free Gaza Movement, which first broke the blockade of Gaza by sea in 2008. Following the June 2025 voyage of the Madleen, international participation in flotilla initiatives expanded significantly, reflecting global civil society's growing refusal to accept our governments' normalization of siege and genocide.

This phase of the mission follows Israel’s April 29 attack on 22 civilian vessels off the western coast of Greece, as well as the abduction and abuse of two Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) organizers. Following that attack, organizers temporarily paused departures in order to assess security conditions and coordinate next steps. Despite escalating attacks and intimidation, the flotilla mission continues.
In recent weeks, Israel and the United States have attempted to smear and criminalize the GSF through baseless allegations clearly aimed at delegitimizing civilian resistance and manufacturing public consent for further attacks on the mission. The release of GSF organizers Saif and Thiago without charges only further exposed the emptiness of these claims. A few countries have spoken out against those crimes, but Canada, Australia and France are not among those principled intenational voices. Israel and all states cooperating with it are on clear notice: this flotilla is civilian, unarmed, and sailing in accordance with international law, and in defense of fundamental human rights.

For Palestinians in Gaza who have endured two decades of a deadly blockade, repeated military assaults, forced deprivation, sexual violence and ongoing genocide, this flotilla represents more than humanitarian solidarity. It is an act of international civilian resistance against settler colonial violence and the global machinery that sustains it.

As part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, the Canadian Boat to Gaza campaign remains committed to direct, nonviolent action--at sea and on land--to confront Israel’s illegal closure of Gaza and to stand with the Palestinian people in their struggle for freedom, dignity, return, and self-determination. We invite you to join with us in this work.

In solidarity,

David from Canada Boat to Gaza
