247 - In a powerful testimony, Brazilian internationalist activist Thiago Ávila told Alma Plus TV about his experience on the humanitarian mission to Gaza,"Flortilha da Liberdade".

"Israel only has weapons and hatred. We have dignity, solidarity and humanity on our side," he says."We are not afraid, the Palestinians deserve freedom."

The Sumud Global Flotilla continues its journey towards Gaza, attempting to break Israel's genocidal blockade of the Palestinian enclave.

The vessels, carrying activists and humanitarian aid, departed from Barcelona, Spain, last Sunday, but turned back due to bad weather, setting sail again on Monday. Around 200 activists, politicians, and artists from 44 countries are on board.
