    The yacht, which was trying to bring a "symbolic" amount of aid to Gaza, is now on its way to Israeli territory.

      Okay, so actually we now know how the situation has and will unfold so there’s no need to speculate.

      As it turns out, the boat was actually routed to the port of Ashdod. All 12 activists are fine and they’re currently being detained in a facility nearby after undergoing medical checks. They’re going to stay there until they get deported to their respective countries.

      Israel claims that the aid that was on bored will get sent to Gaza through established channels, but whether that will happen is questionable. Also Israel also said that they’re apparently going to make the activists watch videos of the Oct 7th terrorist attacks before deporting them.
