On 01 Oct 2025, Israeli attacks killed at least 61 people in Gaza as the Global Sumud Flotilla sailed closer to the besieged area. The flotilla, carrying humanitarian aid, entered a high-risk zone about 150 nautical miles from Gaza, where Israeli forces have stopped or attacked previous aid ships. UN Special Rapporteur Francesca Albanese and Colombian President Gustavo Petro called for the flotilla’s safe passage. Ships from Spain and Italy are escorting the aid boats, while Turkish drones monitor the area. Israel says it will stop the flotilla, calling it a breach of its naval blockade. Organizers say an Israeli navy ship briefly jammed communications and engines on one flotilla vessel but later left, allowing the boats to continue. The situation remains tense, with live updates from the flotilla as it approaches Gaza. The Red Cross has paused operations in Gaza City due to heavy bombing.
