June 1st, we’ll attempt to, again, sail towards Gaza and to try to break the siege and open up a humanitarian corridor by delivering aid like food and medical supplies,” says Thunberg. A similar mission to sail to occupied Gaza in May was aborted after a flotilla dubbed the “Conscience” suffered two drone attacks while in international waters.

“Keep your eyes on deck, continue flooding the streets, organize, boycott, and do everything in your power to stand for Palestine,” Thunberg ends her message, readying to set sail for Gaza from Catania, Sicily, on Sunday with aid supplies and several high-profile activists alongside her.

I hope she's going to be okay...

I've long been a fan of her climate activism, but I didn't know she was also advocating for Gaza. Good on her.

Yeah she’s been an advocate, at least on my radar, since this most recent phase of the genocide began. She’s been arrested multiple times for protests and was aboard the last aid shop that was bombed like six months ago.
