The group says there are 30 activists on board and they have not heard from them for several hours.
Four Australian activists were preparing to board the ship in Malta and journey to Gaza, which remains under an Israeli blockade, with food, medical supplies and others.
In 2010, Israeli commandos boarded a similar ship, the MV Mavi Marmara, and killed nine Turkish citizens and one Turkish-American citizen who were onboard.
A group of pro-Palestinian activists say their ship has been struck by drone fire in international waters off the coast of Malta.
The group, the Freedom Flotilla coalition, says its passenger ship, Conscience, was 13 nautical miles east of Malta when it was struck twice in the bow, 20 minutes after midnight local time.
According to the group, the strikes damaged the ship's generator and it was taking on water.

…The #Trump admin has vowed to take on campus #protests against #Israel’s military campaign in the #Gaza Strip, saying they reflect #antisemitism that must be punished. Those efforts are aimed at both #college administrators, who Trump ofcls say should have done more to rein in campus protests, & #student #activists themselves, some of whom #immigration ofcls have detained. Activists, in turn, accuse the authorities of conflating criticism of Israeli & US policy w/antisemitism.

Join Amanda Belantara and Emily Drabinski for a celebration of Ways of Knowing: The Worlds Words Create.
Confronted with #library systems that hide or exclude them, library workers, #scholars, and #activists have developed their own.
Listen together to select recordings from the three projects included in the book, the Chicano Thesaurus, Women's Thesaurus, and Homosaurus.
Series editor Violet Fox will offer contextualizing remarks.
Unbelievable! #Nadler, you are disgrace and this brings me back to the depths of the #Bush years when you threw #activists out of your office for wanting to impeach #DickCheney. Honestly, at this point the #Democrats must be considered #fascist enablers and the quicker the public realizes this fact, the better https://www.rochesterfirst.com/hill-politics/three-house-democrats-ask-to-be-removed-from-trump-impeachment-resolution/amp/
they are #US #politicians, #celebrities, #activists, they demobilized the #democrats #voter base, they trash all the #hope in young people by inducing in them the idea that it was useless, the #election was pointless, bc "both parties are the same". they are raveling as we speak in their #collapse wet dreams which according to their demeanor, brings them final judgement over #US #imperialism.

“#PeterDutton (Liberal) has dodged questions about his labelling of some organisations “hate media”.
At a press conference in #MossVale, a reporter referred to Dutton saying twice that some organisations, including the #ABC and #TheGuardian, were “#HateMedia” and that #journalists were #activists, asking what #questions the opposition leader had #disliked.
“I think what Australians are concentrating on only days out from the election is not the feelings of, you know, with respect, anyone [from the media],” the opposition leader replied.
The journalist interrupted: “You’re the one that’s taken issue”.
Dutton continued his answer, saying families were interested in what’s better for them and #promoted his #FuelExcise reduction and #TaxRebate. Another reporter asked: “Isn’t #blaming the #media just a convenient excuse at this point of the campaign?”
Dutton continued #speaking over #questions, saying the prime minister had no interest in stopping gangs. “I want to keep our country safe and that’s exactly what we’ll do,” Dutton said before walking away. Another journalist yelled about #integrity as Dutton walked off.”
The media has picked up the Opposition leader candidate in the last couple of weeks. Also a reminder that yesterday #ABC #4Corners shown last night, investigated Dutton for misconduct of business Interest declarations while he was a Minister in government.

Would you be able to detect Pegasus spyware on your phone? How can you tell whether or not the government has set up a Stingray, spoofing your ISP and intercepting your messages?

I highly recommend a listen to Burn Wild, a 8 episode series about Joe Dibee and Josephine “Sunshine” Overacker. The story of two fugitive environmentalists, an eco-terrorist cell and a burning question: How far is too far to go to save the planet?

I find it very moving to see all these closet #Christians do their religious coming out in the wake of the death of #PopeFrancis. Most of them #activists of all kinds, from #climate to #humanrights, using this liminal #Easter to celebrate the teachings of that brown Middle Eastern radical leftist called #Jesus. Now the #Pope has died, it is up to them to show fierce courage in reclaiming their #faith and resilience in their #compassion. Because there's no one left to do it for them.
