'Huwaida Arraf, a Palestinian American lawyer who helped pioneer the tactic back in 2008, is clear that this not just a symbolic effort. “Our small boats are never going to carry the amount of aid that Palestinians need, but it’s always been calculated to challenge a blockade that’s illegal, and doing it by #directAction"...

"The #genocideInGaza hit #Hollywood as a political issue, but it also played out as a #labor question: in auditions canceled, projects endlessly stalled, careers ended. In some cases, the answer has been silence. In others, something closer to the opposite."

"What is it actually like on board a flotilla to Gaza, knowing you'll likely be targeted and imprisoned? Until now, it's a story that's been told mostly in fragments, one vertical video at a time. This is the inside story of what it is like on the #GlobalSumudFlotilla: the drone attacks, the safety drills, the calls home, and the #Palestinians in #Gaza waiting to see if civilians can break a siege backed by a superpower."

This is The Flotillas, a three-part documentary series from The Take. Part 1: It was just a few boats and a radical idea – break the maritime siege of Gaza imposed by Israel. Today, that spark has grown into a defiant global movement, but Huwaida Arraf has been confronting Israel on land and at sea for more than two decades. In 2025, she once again prepared to sail to Gaza on the ship Handala. This time, the stakes were different. As a mother of two, Huwaida navigated not only the risks of confronting a naval blockade, but also what it means to continue the fight while raising a family. This is the story of how a small, unlikely mission at sea grew into an international movement, and what keeps its earliest leaders going despite the personal cost.

As the case winds its way to a final decision, what does this mean for the thousands of Britons who have been arrested — and for the future of Palestinian solidarity in the UK?'
