MEP Chris Andrews on board the Global Sumud Flotilla.

For the past two weeks, I have been aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, sailing to Gaza to deliver vital humanitarian aid. 

Aboard my boat, the Spectre, are 21 other activists from a dozen other countries, all united in our desire to bring an end to the genocide and man-made famine in Palestine.
