The fleet’s management confirmed it lost contact with several ships following Israeli attacks and is actively working to monitor all activists and crew members’ status.

They emphasized their location 70 nautical miles off Gaza’s coast and affirmed their intent to continue without retreating.
The fleet appealed globally for calls demanding safety and freedom for all ship occupants.
