Hey chess fans,

While we're usually plotting moves on the board, here's a quick update on the Global Sumud Flotilla: a 44-vessel humanitarian mission to deliver aid to Gaza by challenging the blockade.

Latest Updates (Oct 3, 2025)

Interceptions: Israeli navy stopped 43 ships in international waters, detaining 450+ volunteers. Some vessels like Morgana and Zefiro faced incendiary devices, but no injuries reported.

One Ship Persists: The Marinette is still en route with aid, but contact with others is lost, heightening concerns.

Global Backlash: Amnesty International calls it unlawful, worsening Gaza's crisis. Protests in Rome, Istanbul, and more demand releases and aid passage.
