On May 4, 2026, not long after Israel intercepted dozens of ships attempting to break the two-decade-long siege on Gaza, Palestinian activists spoke out from Al-Shati refugee camp in Gaza City. “We are protesting here today to strongly condemn the Israeli act of violence, aggression and its piracy against the flotilla,” said Sujud Shanawra, a 27-year-old Palestinian activist, to Unicorn Riot. She called on the international community to “end its complicity and its impunity that it gives to the Israeli occupation.”
