⚓️ **Welsh Sailor Detained in Aid Mission Drama** ⚓️
Cardigan’s own Hannah Schafer is making waves as she’s among 500 activists and aid workers caught up in a high-seas drama! 🚤 Hannah was part of the Global Sumud Flotilla, a massive convoy of over 50 vessels aiming to bring much-needed humanitarian aid to Gaza. But their mission hit rough waters when Israeli forces intercepted them, detaining everyone on board. 🌊
Concern is mounting for Hannah’s safety, as her family anxiously awaits news. Local MP Ben Lake isn’t staying silent either! He’s contacted the UK government to ensure all UK nationals, including Hannah, are safe. 📝 He’s challenging what he calls a “flagrant breach of international law,” as the flotilla was reportedly apprehended 70 nautical miles from Gaza, well out of Israeli jurisdiction.
The UN is calling for Israel to lift the Gaza blockade, highlighting the dire situation with over 320,000 children at risk of starvation. Volker Türk, the UN’s high commissioner for human rights, is pushing for immediate humanitarian aid access. 🆘
As tensions mount, the world watches and waits for Israel’s next move. Will international law and humanitarian efforts prevail? Stay tuned for updates! 🌍📢
