Israel warned Wednesday that it is “prepared” to “act accordingly” to stop Greta Thunberg’s so-called Freedom Flotilla Coalition from reaching Gaza — as the eco-activist frolicked and filmed


smiling social media content on the Mediterranean Sea. Thunberg, 22, set sail Sunday to bring milk and protein bars to Gaza — with the Swedish campaigner posting images of her glamming it


up onboard in a keffiyeh and holding a Palestinian flag. Some of the 11 other protesters onboard soon reported the boat being followed by drones, which appeared to actually be Greek coast


guard devices. However, the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) confirmed Wednesday that it was monitoring the flotilla. “For this case as well, we are prepared,” IDF spokesman Brig. Gen. Effie


Defrin told the Times of London. “We have gained experience in recent years, and we will act accordingly.” EXPLORE MORE Defrin did not elaborate on what action would be taken. However, last


month an earlier Freedom Flotilla Coalition ship was damaged just before it arrived in Malta to pick up Thunberg for a similar mission. The group accused Israel of attacking the vessel with


drones. The Freedom Flotilla Coalition has admitted that its boat, the Madleen, is unlikely to make it to Gaza with its token aid. Still, Thunberg and her pals have made the most of the trip


from the Sicilian port of Catania in southern Italy, filming content including them swimming in the sea. The group claims the voyage is “a non-violent, direct action to challenge Israel’s


illegal siege and escalating war crimes.” “We are doing this because no matter what odds we are against, we have to keep trying, because the moment we stop trying is when we lose our


humanity,” Thunberg said, bursting into tears as she delivered her speech before her departure.
