Kuala lumpur: The Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) vessels are currently in waters around Greece and Turkiye for maintenance on their communication systems and engines, SNCC director-general Datuk Dr. Sani Araby Abdul Alim Araby stated that the technical stopover is temporary and does not involve activists landing ashore.

According to BERNAMA News Agency, Dr. Sani noted the rough sea conditions along the operational route have impacted the movement of the GSF vessels. The ships are anticipated to resume their voyage to Gaza on May 17 after all operational preparations are completed.

In the meantime, Dr. Sani urged Malaysians to continue performing Solat Hajat (prayer of need), Qunut Nazilah (supplication during calamity), and continuous prayers for the safety of the entire mission delegation and the success of efforts to liberate Gaza.

Dr. Sani emphasized that SNCC calls on all Malaysians to unite and intensify their efforts in spreading authentic facts and history, countering the malicious propaganda of the regime, and raising public awareness across all media platforms.

The current GSF mission includes nearly 500 international participants from 45 countries, mobilized by various global humanitarian activist groups. Official inquiries regarding the mission can be made through its portal at tanya.sumudnusantara.com.
