Members of #ProgressiveInternational, #CodePink, and other direct action and advocacy groups plan to set sail for #Cuba next month in the #NuestraAméricaFlotilla, which they said is inspired by the Global Sumud Flotilla missions to break Israel’s illegal blockade of #Gaza amid the ongoing genocide in the Palestinian exclave.
“We are sailing to #Cuba, bringing critical humanitarian aid for its people,” the flotilla organizers said on their website. “The #Trump administration is strangling the island, cutting off fuel, flights, and critical supplies for survival. The consequences are lethal, for newborns and parents, for the elderly and the sick.”
