A drone allegedly targets the lead boat of a large flotilla set to try to break the Israeli maritime blockade on the Gaza Strip, according to organizers.
The incident is said to have occurred inside the Tunisian port of Sidi Bou Said, from which the Global Sumud Flotilla plans to depart on Wednesday.
The lead boat, “Family,” is set to carry Greta Thunberg and other activists.

The organizers say the vessel, carrying members of its steering committee, was struck by what is suspected to be a drone, with all passengers and crew reported safe.
Francesca Albanese, the staunchly anti-Israel UN rapporteur from the Palestinians, tweets that she is “at the port now trying to figure out the facts, with local authorities and flotilla people.
