Greta Thunberg and friends on intercepted selfie yacht will be forced to watch video of the horrors of Oct. 7, IDF says

Greta Thunberg and her posse of international activists will be forced to watch footage of the Oct.7 terror attack after Israeli forces intercepted their Gaza-bound “selfie yacht,” Israel’s defense minister revealed Monday.Israeli Defense Forces captured and boarded the Madleen ship, operated by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, after the Swedish activist and the others on board tried to break the naval blockade of the Gaza Strip — just hours after Israeli officials demanded they call off the stunt.

“I congratulate the IDF for the quick and safe takeover of the ‘Madleen’ flotilla to prevent them from breaking the blockade and reaching the shores of Gaza,” Israel’s defense minister, Israel Katz, said on X.“I instructed the IDF to show the flotilla passengers the video of the horrors of the October 7 massacre when they arrive at the port of Ashdod,” he wrote.“It is appropriate that the anti-Semitic Greta and her fellow Hamas supporters see exactly who the Hamas terrorist organization they came to support and for whom they work is, what atrocities they committed against women, the elderly, and children, and against whom Israel is fighting to defend itself,” he explained.It comes after Thunberg had claimed that she and her crew had been “kidnapped” in international waters by Israeli forces after they had set off to try and deliver aid to Gaza later Monday.Israel, for its part, dismissed the saga as a stunt.“The ‘selfie yacht’ of the ‘celebrities’ is safely making its way to the shores of Israel.

The passengers are safe and were provided with sandwiches and water,” the ministry wrote on X.Photos showed the crew, which included Irish actor Liam Cunningham, all seated on the boat with their hands in the air as the IDF thwarted their attempts to reach Gaza.
