Flotilla surrounded by explosions, hit with chemicals, as it nears Gaza

Indigenous women from the Amazon and throughout the south are aboard the flotilla. "We will always defend our joy -- but that does not mean that we do not organize our rage." The colonizers crossed the sea to exploit them, and now they are crossing the sea to the sacred land of Palestine. "We survived the genocide of our original people," an Indigenous woman said. Their laughter and hope, songs and joy, move them forward. https://www.instagram.com/ariadnetelles/

The Global Sumud Flotilla said the flotilla was surrounded by explosions, and hit with chemicals, as the flotilla of fifty ships is off the shore of Crete in international waters and nearing Gaza with humanitarian aid.

"At least 14 boats have been hit. We are still assessing the damage," the Flotilla said today, Wednesday, at noon New York time.

"We need you now more than ever. We need the world’s eyes on Gaza and on the Flotilla."

Indigenous women from the far north, and the Amazon, are on the Flotilla. Women from the United States are also on the boats.
