Greta Thunberg says she hasn't heard of allegations some involved in the Freedom Flotilla aid mission supported Hamas.
Freedom Flotilla has attempted to break through Israel's blockade multiple times, with only two ships ever allowed close to Gaza.
The Madleen, launched by the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, is one of several Gaza-bound vessels intercepted by Israel.
The Foreign Ministry stated that it had been in contact with the crew of the 'Madleen', and had advised the flotilla to change its course.
The group is carrying supplies for Gazan Palestinians and protesting what they say is “Israel’s “illegal, decades-long blockade, and ongoing genocide” in the enclave.
