The Bribón, captained by the ERC councilor, will remain in Barcelona, and Coronas will be piloting a larger ship.

The solidarity flotilla that yesterday set sail for Gaza from Barcelona, and that had to return to the Catalan capital last night due to bad weather - as ABC reported yesterday - will resume its journey to Palestine today at noon or early afternoon.

As ABC has learned, following the captains' meeting held this morning, it was decided that weather conditions allowed the voyage to resume. Yesterday afternoon, after the thirty boats comprising the flotilla departed from Port Vell amid great excitement, it was decided to suspend the departure due to the northerly wind blowing in from the Gulf of Lion. Official sources, who did not confirm the fleet's return last night until 11:30 a.m. today, indicated that winds of up to 30 knots made the return advisable.

Among the vessels that had to spend the night in shelter was the Family, the ship on which former mayor Ada Colau and activist Greta Thunberg boarded.

The same thing happened with the Bribón, one of the ships once captained by King Juan Carlos, which now, with Jordi Coronas, the ERC councilor in Barcelona, at the helm, was part of the expedition. Due to technical problems, the Bribón will remain in port, and Coronas will captain a larger vessel, the Adara.
