Times of Israel: 1,000 boats said set to leave Turkey for Gaza waters in new ‘Freedom Flotilla’  

Reminiscent of infamous 2010 Mavi Marmara protest, large maritime convoy plans to remain in international waters off Ashdod and disrupt sea trade route to Israel 

Approximately 1,000 boats will gather in Turkey on Wednesday before heading toward Gaza in an attempt to break the Israeli blockade and disrupt maritime trade coming into Israel during the war with Hamas, in an apparent repeat of similar attempts from over a decade ago. 

In an interview with Turkish news website Haber7, Volkan Okçu, one of the organizers of the protest, indicated the boats will carry 4,500 people from 40 countries, “including anti-Zionist Jews.” Among the 1,000 vessels would be 313 boats filled with Russian activists, and 104 filled with Spanish activists, he said. Only 12 Turkish vessels will join the flotilla, he told Haber7.

WNU editor: This looks like a repeat of 2010 .... Repeat Of 2010 Gaza Flotilla Feared As Hundreds Of Boats Gather In Turkey (Iran International). As to what is my take. If this flotilla does embark to Gaza, it will be to test the US on what will they do more than on what Israel will do.
