On Friday, the International Committee to Break the Siege of Gaza said in a statement that several activists held aboard the vessels “announced that they have entered an open-ended hunger strike from the moment of their detention.”<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

The announcement comes as the Israeli military seized the final boat of the Global Sumud Flotilla, once a 44-strong fleet.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Livestream video showed Zionist regime's forces forcing their way onboard the Polish-flagged Marinette, which reportedly has a crew of six, on Friday morning.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Speaking via video call with flotilla organizers late on Thursday, the Australian captain, who identified himself only as Cameron, explained that the vessel initially had engine issues and was therefore lagging behind the main group.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Since Wednesday, the Israeli navy has illegally intercepted flotilla vessels as they neared Gaza, detaining about 500 activists from more than 40 countries.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n

Several high-profile figures, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, former Barcelona mayor Ada Colau, and Member of European Parliament Rima Hassan, are among those abducted.<\/span><\/p>\r\n\r\n
