Rules

Follow the aussie.zone rules
We are not a generic World News clone. News must be relevant to Australians and our region. Obvious disregard will earn an warning and then a ban if continued. (If an article isn't from an Oceanian news outlet, and it doesn’t mention Australia, then it’s probably off-topic)
Leave seppocentrism at the door. If you don't know what that means, you're not ready to post here yet.
Avoid editorialising headlines. Opinions go in the comments, not the post.

In short:

The Global Sumud Flotilla, attempting to break Israel's naval blockade of Gaza, has been intercepted by the Israeli navy.

A boat carrying Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg was the first to be boarded, with Israel saying "Greta and her friends are safe and healthy".

The flotilla said Israeli navy forces were using "active aggression" on their fleet.

Israel is a disgusting disgrace that deserves to be invaded and fixed. Shame on Israel - nuke it tbh.
