A civilian flotilla seeking to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza says it was attacked by a drone twice in less than 24 hours this week.
The Global Sumud Flotilla shared a video early this week showing one of its boats being hit by a flaming object at Sidi Bou Said port, near Tunis.
Tunisia’s interior ministry said reports of a drone hitting a boat in the port aren’t true and that a fire broke out on the vessel itself.
Early Wednesday morning, another boat had been attacked by another drone as it was moored in the same port, GSF said.
This isn’t the first time an unarmed civilian vessel challenging Israel’s siege of Gaza has been thwarted.
