Foreign Ministers from Qatar, Bangladesh, Brazil, Colombia, Indonesia, Ireland, Libya, Malaysia, Maldives, Mexico, Pakistan, Oman, Slovenia, South Africa, Spain, and Turkey have voiced their concerns regarding the safety of the Global Sumud Flotilla. This civil initiative includes citizens from these nations.

The Global Sumud Flotilla aims to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza and highlight the critical needs of the Palestinian people, urging an end to the conflict. The governments of these countries support these goals, emphasizing peace, aid delivery, and adherence to international and humanitarian law, according to Qatar’s Ministry of Foreign Affairs.

“We urge everyone to avoid any illegal or violent actions against the Flotilla and to respect international and humanitarian laws. We remind that any breach of these laws, such as attacks on vessels in international waters or illegal detentions, will be held accountable.”
