Footage shows apparent attack on Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla near Greece

The Global Sumud Flotilla, a group of 51 ships attempting to carry aid to the Gaza Strip, has shared footage that appears to show an explosion that detonated on one of the flotilla's vessels.

Activists said late on Tuesday that they heard explosions and saw drones that targeted some of their boats, currently situated off Greece.

"Multiple drones, unidentified objects dropped, communications jammed and explosions heard from a number of boats," the Global Sumud Flotilla said in a statement, without adding whether there were any casualties.

"We are witnessing these psychological operations firsthand, right now, but we will not be intimidated."

German human rights activist and flotilla member Yasemin Acar said in a video that she posted on Instagram that five vessels had been attacked.
