Israel prepares to intercept Gaza aid flotilla amid rising tensions

Israel has warned it will take necessary measures to prevent the Madleen aid flotilla, carrying humanitarian supplies and activists including Greta Thunberg, from reaching Gaza, citing security concerns and the blockade aimed at preventing weapons transfer to Hamas. The flotilla, which departed Sicily, is in international waters and asserts it is unarmed and peaceful, while Israel plans to intercept and possibly deport the vessel.
