Israeli forces intercept Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla boats

Israeli forces intercepted most of the Global Sumud Flotilla as it attempted to reach Gaza with humanitarian aid. Reuters reported that organizers said Israeli forces intercepted dozens of boats and fired shots during the operation, while Israel denied using live ammunition and said the vessels were blocked under its naval blockade. Turkey condemned the interceptions, and later Arab-Islamic foreign ministers condemned the treatment of detained flotilla participants. This is a singular blockade/enforcement event connected to Gaza aid access, humanitarian diplomacy, and the politics of the ceasefire.
