Of 42 ships in the Global Sumud Flotilla, one made it into the waters outside Gaza. It remains unknown whether they made it to Gaza or if they have been arrested by the Israeli navy just when they were about to enter.

While not officially confirmed, the following footage allegedly shows their arrival in Gaza:

Other sources claim that the Mikeno too has been captured by Israel: https://mastodon.social/@Al_Quds_News14/115303483176696689

According to Israel via Al Jazeera, they have seized “all but one” of the vessels carrying aid:

This could refer to the Marinette, which is still just north of Cairo, or to the Mikeno, whose status is not confirmed:

Update:

It is with heavy hearts and sadness that we announce the Global Sumud Flotilla vessel “Mikeno” was seized by the Israeli Navy.

The captain, a hero, defied direct Israeli orders to shut his engine down and seize progression. He then went completely dark, shutting off all electronics and maneuvering past their blockade. The “Mikeno” made it within 7NM of the coast of Gaza. The ship was then intercepted, seized, and boarded by naval commandos deployed from multiple Israeli warships with drones flying overhead.

    I somehow missed him saying it’s pointless for Palestinians. I assumed they meant it in a way we Europeans constantly shit on people for doing photo-ops with Zelensky instead of real action. These things are pointless when the EU spends more money buying russian gas than they spend on defending Ukraine. It’s all a front show.

    I’ve heard enough about how Ukraine is just buying time and how it’s all over.

    This is very false. Ukraine is actually getting quite desperate with unpopular law changes like forcing men to return to Ukraine or lowering/increasing minimum military age, not even talking about deep strikes which was a big no from many, but Ukraine can no longer afford the slow war, they cannot win by attrition, hence the constant escalation.

    The current hot topic seems to be the fact that Russia has turned Zaporizhzhya NPP into a dirty bomb that can go off if backup generators fail. Yes, you read that correctly. The Europe’s largest nuclear power plant is being kept active (non-generating, but active in nuclear), only cooled by backup generators which can fail at any moment (backup generators aren’t designed to be ran for multiple days in a row), followed by a nuclear meltdown, but no one talks about it because apparently it’s no longer a trendy topic, as confirmed by you.
