The Global Sumud Flotilla has been illegally seized in international waters by Israeli forces off the coast of Gaza as it attempted to break the long standing illegal blockade.

In the night of April 29th, 2026, Israeli forces have boarded vessels in the Global Sumud Flotilla and illegally detained approximately 175 peaceful individuals in international waters, 45 nautical miles west of the Greek island Kythira and 600 nautical miles from Gaza, according to the Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Flotilla organisers. Crew of the Arctic Sunrise confirms that their vessels are left abandoned and severely damaged at sea. 

With the Arctic Sunrise, Greenpeace has been providing logistical support.  The Arctic Sunrise is currently in Greek territorial waters where it is supporting 32 vessels and escorting them to get safely at anchor in Crete, Greece. We will attend refueling, technical issues and medical support where needed.

Greenpeace Netherlands activists have disrupted the first-ever shareholder meeting of meat giant JBS in the Netherlands. At the Sheraton Hotel at Schiphol Airport, where the meeting took place, activists hung a banner dripping with fake blood that read: ‘JBS: Keep your bloody business out of Africa’. A massive banner with the same message was displayed in the hotel lobby. Activists entered the meeting hall, where Greenpeace Director Marieke Vellekoop personally served an information request to the JBS CEOs. This document formally signals that Greenpeace Netherlands is taking legal action against the company. The goal of the legal battle is to block JBS's destructive expansion plans in Nigeria.
