Organizers of a maritime aid convoy announced on Thursday that they intend to depart from Barcelona for Gaza on April 12. The planned mission marks a renewed effort by pro-Palestinian activists to breach the blockade surrounding the coastal territory. This upcoming deployment follows a previous attempt by the same group to reach the region last year, which did not succeed in delivering aid to the destination.
The organizers stated that the fresh flotilla is scheduled to set sail from the Spanish port city. Their objective remains focused on reaching Gaza, which they described in their statement as a devastated territory. The announcement confirms the timeline for the next phase of their campaign, setting a specific departure date for the coming month.
Logistics for the mission are being finalized in Barcelona ahead of the mid-April timeline. The group has not released further details regarding the number of vessels or participants involved in the upcoming voyage. Attention now turns to the departure point as the scheduled date approaches.
Activists involved in the coalition have indicated that the operation is proceeding despite the challenges faced during the prior year’s initiative. The statement issued on Thursday serves as the primary confirmation of the launch window. The group confirmed that the mission is set to depart from Barcelona on April 12.
