The Global Sumud Flotilla activists attempted to reach Gaza to bring aid supplies and draw attention to the plight of Gaza, but were arrested by Israeli forces.
The Israeli military has taken captive more than 450 foreign activists, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, who is seen in videos shared by them sitting on a deck surrounded by soldiers.
A live video feed from one of the boats in the flotilla showed passengers in life vests sitting on deck. This is Thunberg's second attempt to break Israel’s blockade of Gaza.
The Israeli military gave few initial details but said its troops had begun 'dismantling Hamas terrorist infrastructure in Gaza City' and advised residents to leave.
The Israeli military did not immediately respond to request for comment on the reported move, which comes after weeks of intensive Israeli strikes on the city.
Bihar is blessed with a land more fertile for revolutions than any in India. Why has it fallen so far behind then? Constant obsession with politics is at the root of its destruction.
