Gaza Freedom Flotilla III: Estelle

Estelle, a beautiful sailing ship, is going to play a
key role in Freedom Flotilla's renewed attempt to break
the blockade on Gaza. This summer we will be launching
an entirely new project. This time, we are going to sail
from Umeå [in northern Sweden] to Gaza, stopping on the
way at ports in the Baltic Sea, the Atlantic Ocean and
the Mediterranean Sea. At each stop, there will be
speakers, concerts and public festivals providing
information about the situation in Gaza. We will be
bringing a cargo of necessities that have been requested
by the non-partisan, independent organizations in Gaza
that we work together with.
