Global Sumud Flotilla


WE'RE SAILING TO GAZA Coordinators, organizers, and participants from the Maghreb Sumud Flotilla, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition*, Global Movement to Gaza, and the Sumud Nusantara have united under a common goal: to break the illegal siege on Gaza by sea, open a humanitarian corridor, and end the ongoing genocide of the Palestinian people. This Summer, dozens of boats will set sail from ports around the world, large and small, converging toward Gaza in the largest coordinated civilian flotilla in history.

The Global Sumud Flotilla is a coordinated, nonviolent fleet of mostly small vessels sailing from ports across the Mediterranean to break the Israeli occupation's illegal siege on Gaza. Land routes are either fully blocked or subject to strict control by the Israeli Occupation Forces and the U.S.-backed Gaza Humanitarian Foundation (GHF). Civilian vessels carrying humanitarian aid or engaging in peaceful protest in international waters are protected under maritime law.
