The Freedom Flotilla Coalition's ship, the Conscience, carrying aid to Gaza, has been stranded for four days after being attacked by drones in international waters near Malta.

For months now hundreds of activists have been organizing, where their governments have failed, trying to get the desperately needed humanitarian aid into the battered Gaza Strip and they intend to do it by boat.

Scores of Palestinians have been killed in US-backed Israeli air strikes in refugee camps across Gaza.

As aid barely trickles into Gaza, a group of activists are trying to break Israel’s brutal siege of the battered coastal territory themselves.

UN experts have called on Israel to allow the New Freedom Flotilla’s ships to bring their much-needed relief to residents of the besieged Gaza Strip.

A flotilla of ships bound for the Gaza Strip is expected to depart from Turkey in the coming days in an attempt to breach Israel's naval blockade and to draw attention to the limited aid reaching Palestinians in the besieged enclave.

The Freedom Flotilla Coalition will soon be back to sailing in order to break the illegal, immoral and inhuman siege of Gaza.
