The video on the tweet says that they are 24 hours from reaching Gaza and that Israel has started to jam the ships communication signals. That they are expecting to be attacked or intercepted.

The “Israel Minister of Defense” Israel Katz instructed the Israel Forces to prevent the ship from reaching Gaza.

Madleen is the ship carrying Greta Thunberg.

    Haaretz just published an article saying that the Israel Navy is planning to intercept the Madleen tonight. It’s already 11pm in Israel.

    The Israeli Navy is preparing to intercept the protest vessel of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC) overnight Monday as it sails toward the Gaza coast.

    Several possible scenarios have been rehearsed, and the IDF reportedly prefers to carry out the operation with minimal media attention. However, Defense Minister Israel Katz issued a warning Sunday to the activists on board, stating that he had instructed the military to use “any means necessary” to prevent the flotilla from reaching Gaza.

    The navy is preparing to intercept the ship as far as possible from both Israel and Gaza shores, hoping to avoid a forced boarding – a lesson learned from the 2010 Mavi Marmara incident. The goal is to give activists the opportunity to turn back voluntarily, or at the very least, to prevent the ship from attempting to breach the naval blockade without resorting to force.
