Rifts in Gaza flotilla? Greta Thunberg removed from leadership committee
Climate activist Greta Thunberg was removed from the Global Sumud Flotilla’s Steering Committee last week, and the mission’s spokesperson left the Gaza-bound vessels amid a reorientation of communications priorities.
Thunberg, who joined a previous run of the Israeli naval blockade around Gaza in June with the Madleen, appeared on the GSF’s website as part of its leadership committee until at least last Sunday. Il Manifesto, which has a correspondent aboard one of the flotilla vessels, reported on Tuesday that Thunberg was seen dragging her suitcase along a Tunis dock to transfer from the Steering Committee flagship Family to another vessel, the Alma.
