Retour aux actusGreek authorities intercepted vessels belonging to the "Freedom Flotilla for Gaza" and disembarked activists in Crete. The pro-Palestinian convoy was attempting to sail toward Gaza when Greek coast guard officials boarded the ships and brought participants ashore on the island. The incident took place in Cretan waters and involved international activists from multiple countries. For tourists visiting Crete, there is no direct safety concern or disruption to normal travel, tourism, or port activity on the island. Ferry routes and cruise terminals continue to operate as usual. Visitors to ports such as Heraklion or Chania may notice an increased coast guard presence in the area, which is a routine operational response and not cause for concern.
