ISRAELI military have reportedly boarded Greta Thunberg’s Gaza-bound flotilla after being circled by a war vessel.
Several vessels of the Gaza aid flotilla have been stopped and their passengers are being transferred to an Israeli port, the Israeli foreign ministry said in a statement.
Greta Thunberg, the Swedish climate campaigner, and her friends are “safe and healthy,” the foreign ministry said in a post on X.
The message was posted alongside a video that appeared to show Greta and several masked and armed Israeli military personnel.
It comes just hours after dozens of boats in the flotilla announced a state of emergency as it readied itself for an interception.
The statement said: “High alert. Our vessels are being illegally intercepted.
“Cameras are offline and vessels have been boarded by military personnel. We are actively working to confirm the safety and status of all participants on board.”
