The Global Sumud flotilla blamed Israel for the attacks and said the drones caused 13 explosions as they targeted the sails of at least 11 of the vessels, although no one was injured.

An Italian MP on board one vessel also said ship radios were jammed and suddenly started playing Abba songs at top volume.

It is the third apparent attack on the boats that set sail from Spain earlier this month and are intending to deliver food and supplies to the war-torn Gaza Strip.
