TEHRAN (Defapress) - Al Jazeera reports that the Zionist regime's navy has blockaded the ship "Madleen," which is carrying humanitarian aid to Gaza.

Francesca Albanese, the UN Special Rapporteur on Palestine, announced in a post on X that she is in contact with the crew of the Madelin and that the ship is now surrounded by Israeli boats.

Albanese wrote: "Israeli speedboats have reached them, and now 5 boats have encircled the fleet."

She added: "The captain has instructed the team to remain calm and stay seated while holding their passports and life jackets… For now, they are only being blockaded. I am with them and documenting everything."

However, after patrolling near the Madleen, the speedboats moved away, and the Madleen is now heading toward Gaza.

The Zionist newspaper Haaretz, referring to the regime’s plans to intercept the Madelin in international waters tonight, claimed that this move was designed to avoid the use of force and would give the crew sufficient time to change course.

The Madleen’s crew has stated that they are determined to break the blockade on Gaza.

Meanwhile, a senior Zionist official told Israel’s Channel 12 that if the ship does not change course, commando forces will seize it and divert it to the port of Ashdod.

Naval commandos of the Zionist regime have now surrounded the Madleen and demanded that passengers throw their mobile phones into the sea. They issued orders to redirect the ship.

The naval commandos stormed the Madelin, took control of its helm, and cut off communication between the human rights activists on board and the outside world.

Israel’s Foreign Ministry officially confirmed the seizure of the Madleen by the regime’s forces.

In a post on X, the ministry claimed: "The celebrity-affiliated ship is now safely heading toward the shores of the occupied territories."

Tel Aviv accused Greta Thunberg and others of attempting to stage a "media provocation" solely aimed at attracting public attention, alleging that sufficient humanitarian aid had reached Gaza over the past two weeks.
