Activists on board the Global Sumud Flotilla, hoping to break the siege on Gaza, have been attacked and detained in an Israeli raid on dozens of vessels that has sparked anger across the world.
Around 500 activists travelling on 40 civilian ships had been heading to Gaza bringing vital medical and humanitarian supplies, such as baby formula, which has been in critically short supply due to a crippling Israeli siege on the enclave which has caused hundreds of people to starve to death.
Last night, Israel raided the vessels and detained some of the activists, bringing them back to Israel with little news on their fate.
Meanwhile, in Gaza, Israel continued its devastating assault on Gaza City, with at least 13 people killed in attacks since dawn, according to Al Jazeera.
At least 85 people have been killed in Israeli attacks on the Gaza Strip in the past 24 hours.
This morning's deadly attacks include one on the al-Falah School in the al-Zeitoun area of Gaza City, which was housing displaced Palestinians.
