Israeli naval forces intercepted and boarded vessels of the Global Sumud flotilla as it approached the Gaza blockade on October 1, 2025. The convoy included more than 40 civilian boats carrying about 500 people, among them parliamentarians, lawyers, activists and Greta Thunberg. Organizers reported that some live broadcasts from ships were cut and said they were working to confirm the safety and status of all participants. Many live feeds continued showing people on board sitting calmly. The International Committee of the Red Cross temporarily suspended activities in Gaza City, citing Israel's offensive and 'harrowing humanitarian conditions.' German authorities arrested three suspected Hamas operatives.
