ISTANBUL (AA) – The grandson of former South African President Nelson Mandela is set to join a convoy heading to the Gaza Strip to break an Israeli siege on the enclave, the Global Sumud Flotilla said Thursday.
In a post on the US social media company X, the flotilla said that Mandla Mandela will join 10 South African citizens aboard the Sumud Flotilla.
The flotilla set sail from Barcelona earlier this week with around 200 activists, politicians, and artists from 44 countries. It is scheduled to depart Tunisia on Sunday on its way to Gaza.
