Pakistani politician prepares to sail for Gaza aboard Global Sumud Flotilla

KARACHI: Pakistani politician Senator Mushtaq Ahmed Khan on Wednesday prepared to sail for Gaza aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) initiative, vowing to break Israel’s blockade of the Palestinian territory. The flotilla, which arrived in Tunisia on Sunday and wants to reach Israel with food and vital supplies, has said its boats have since been subjected to attacks on two occasions this week. GSF reported the first attack on Tuesday, saying one of its vessels had been struck by a drone in Tunisian waters at the Sidi Bou Said port, reports Tunisian authorities said were false.
