Media sources reported that the Gaza Strip will witness the launch of a large and unprecedented naval fleet at the end of March, described as historic, aimed at providing humanitarian and medical support to the blockaded region, which has been under Israeli siege for years.

24 dead. 'Renewed clashes' says the headline. But when one side has tanks and fighter jets & the other is under siege for 15+ years, is 'clash' really the word? Media framing consistently obscures the power imbalance. #Gaza #MediaBias

“Between a siege that blocks food & a partial opening that allows the entry of products of questionable safety, 2+ million people live in a gray zone: There is no guarantee of what is placed on the table & no real choice for those who are simply trying to stay alive,” Ohood Nassar reports from Gaza.

🚨 Gaza | While cigarettes are blocked over “health concerns,” Palestinians face bombs, hunger, and medicine shortages. In Gaza’s siege economy, a single cigarette now reaches $15 as critics question the true motives behind the ban. #Gaza #Blockade

#Israel is restricting what Palestinians can bring into Gaza through the Rafah crossing, as its forces maintain control over who is allowed in or out.
Rafah’s reopening was supposed to alleviate 18 months of Israel’s punishing siege, but aid continues to be limited.

Yesterday, “The Nation” dedicated its entire website to ‘A Day for Gaza,’ amplifying voices of writers living under siege in the Strip.

According to The Nation, U.S. media coverage has largely ignored Gaza, leaving the world uninformed.

Ongoing siege of Gaza, esp. lack of aid supplies getting through, plus targeting of healthcare facilities since Oct. 2023 has put girls and women at high risk of problems in their sexual and reproductive development, and complications affecting their fertility and pregnancies.

Patient crossings halted at Rafah after Israeli strikes. This isn't collateral; it's a calculated siege tactic. The Lancet's data points to over 479,000 child deaths in Gaza by late 2025—access is life. Where are the 'red lines'? #Rafah #Gaza

Despite ceasefire, Israel’s siege allowing only a trickle of aid into Gaza

Palestinians report a dire lack of healthy food, medicine, and winter shelter, while a new ban on humanitarian groups will push the enclave to the brink.

We've been sailing to break Israel’s illegal siege of Gaza for almost two decades. The first Free Gaza Movement flotilla that reached Gaza in 2008 promised Palestinians “we won’t stop sailing until Israel’s siege is broken". We've kept that promise. We won’t back down.
freedomflotilla.org/donate/
In 2010, Israel killed 10 volunteers aboard the ‘Mavi Marmara’, but that did not stop us. In fact, families of those martyrs are still active in the Freedom Flotilla Coalition today due to our shared belief that we can and must do everything in our power to force open Gaza. Help strengthen the movement and sail until Israel’s illegal siege of Gaza is broken, and until Palestine is free. Donate to the next flotilla now via our linktree or join a delegation, and don’t stop sharing Palestinian voices from Gaza. https://freedomflotilla.org/donate/

Concerned citizen: The flotillas have not broken Israel’s siege yet. Why keep trying? The first flotilla that reached Gaza in 2008 promised Palestinians that "we won’t stop sailing until Israel’s siege is broken". We have kept that promise. We won’t back down now because of Israel’s attempts to shut us down. We acknowledge concerns around launching another flotilla, particularly given the costs and Israel’s confiscation of our vessels and goods onboard. Evaluation of the impact of our actions are both appropriate and necessary. Since 2010, we successfully fought to have boats returned, received compensation for others, and we will continue to fight for the rest. Regardless, we believe that the cost of a boat must be weighed against the cost of silence, complicity, and normalization of Israel’s crimes against Palestinians - costs measured in lives, not dollars. Even if flotilla vessels are not returned, each mission: • Drives global media coverage of Israel’s crimes that no lobbying effort could buy. While Israel spends billions on propaganda to silence the truth, the flotilla forces media to cover Israel’s violence against Palestinians, as well as those who act in solidarity. • Creates a significant financial burden: Israel has spent millions attacking our boats; abducting and deporting volunteers; on police and prison costs; on litigation; on maintenance of stolen boats, and much more. • Forces international governments to address Israel’s law violations. • Sends a strong message to Palestinians that they're not alone, and helps build solidarity for a free Palestine. Meanwhile, hundreds of millions of dollars worth of aid continues to rot at Gaza’s borders, waiting for permission from the same entity that deliberately starves and freezes Palestinians to death. We reject the notion that the occupier be allowed to determine what can get in and out of Gaza. Keeping up the pressure to break Israel’s siege must remain a priority. We cannot and will not back down because of Israel’s attempts to shut us down.

On 27 December 2008, Israel launched a massive military offensive against the Palestinians in the Gaza Strip. The Strip had been placed under an Israeli-led siege a year earlier, subjecting the 360 square-kilometre-enclave to a land, air and sea blockade.

Even if this weren’t some weird eugenics shit (it is), the cuts to USAID and siege of Gaza have destroyed more men’s genetic legacies, in more violent and tragic fashion, than “choosing to be an undateable chud.”

I was part of that mission.

Northern Gaza had been under a total siege for over three months when we were eventually allowed to enter in January 2024. We moved through Gaza City, Beit Lahia, Jabaliya, and Beit Hanoun.

What is being presented today as the “opening” of the Rafah crossing cannot be described as a breakthrough for humanitarian effort. Rather, it’s a re-engineering of the siege, repackaged in calmer language & administered with tighter control.
