On August 31, 2025, the Global Sumud Flotilla set sail. This flotilla is the most recent and largest coalition of activists from around the world who have embarked to reach Gaza, breaking the siege and delivering humanitarian aid, by sea. Israeli officials have threatened that consequences for the activists will be worse than previous ventures, including detaining participants in prisons reserved for state-designated terrorists and seizing the ships to be turned into Israeli police assets.

Amidst this escalation, Italian dockworkers in the Port of Genoa are prepared to go on strike to defend the flotilla in an act that would majorly disrupt global shipping. This act shows the decisive role that the working class has to play in the protection of the Flotilla, the defeat of Israel’s genocidal project in Gaza and the expansion of its occupation of the West Bank.
