Coffee break is over, back to the grind, unable to pop off for a sailing jaunt here, bills to pay unfortunately.

Nothing is going to intimidate Thunberg. She's fried bigger fish than those found in Tunisian waters.

Surely she's a vegetarian.

I thought she was vegan. You mean she fries fish 🐟 thats dreadful news, even seagulls eat it raw (unless they allegedly steal it from others).

Sorry I am actually a mum living in the UK so was off doing the school run. Strange that.

There is video footage of something incendiary falling from the sky and witnesses heard a drone and saw the fire falling from the sky. Thoughts are it was meant to intimidate or warn the humanitarians on board rather than a proper attack.

Tunisian National Guard says otherwise, but what do they know, against an activist comment 🤔 fortunately all crusaders are safe. Didn't appear much damage but no sign of the boats 'aid supplies' either. Seagulls will be blamed for that too, no doubt

I'm sorry I can't believe the seagulls have been cleared until I read it from an appropriate source. Please post a link to Aljazeera or Middle East Eye. Your bias is showing.

AI Overview says they didn't do it.

"No, there are no reports of seagulls attacking a boat named "Family" sailing to Gaza;" Are you suggesting a cover up?

Jolly good.
I quite enjoy these Futilla progress threads ☺️

Me too. Somebody I know personally, assures me that no seagulls were harmed in the making of this drone fantasy.

Someone I know personally and 100% trust is on those boats and said they heard a drone and then saw the fire fall from the sky. Six people were on board at the time and used the onboard firefighting equipment to battle the fire. They don’t believe it was a “bomb” meant to kill but more something incendiary meant to intimidate those on board. They are in good spirits and when a few more boats arrive to join the flotilla they will be continuing onwards.

Jolly good.

  • The GSF says a drone has bombed its principal vessel, the Family Boat, on Monday night, causing a fire on its main deck.
  • The group says there were six people on board the vessel, and that all of them are safe. The fire was quickly put out, but caused damage to the foredeck and below-deck storage.
  • It has released a video, verified by Al Jazeera, showing an incendiary device falling on the vessel and causing an explosion.
  • An activist who witnessed the incident said he saw a drone hovering over the boat before it dropped a bomb on its foredeck.
  • The Tunisian National Guard, however, said reports of a drone attack are “completely unfounded” and that initial investigations show that the fire broke out in one of the life jackets “as a result of a lighter or cigarette butt”.

So its either a bomb (activist version) or fire due to result of a lighter or cigarette butt (Tunisian National Guard version). The seagulls have been exonerated then. Glad no one hurt and the ash can be cleaned up.

The Tunisian maritime authorities are part of the Israeli plot to disrupt the aid flotilla. It is alleged that the Tunis port authorities have been providing supplies to Israeli suicide bomber seagulls with an unnamed source starting "I saw with my own eyes, an official looking man, possibly even Captain Birdseye himself feeding chips to the seagulls".

Of course the Tunisian authorities and an official spokesman for Capt Birdseye have denied the allegations- but you have to be incredibly naive (and a fascist) to believe them.

Wait till they meet the attack piddocks. They're boring but effective.

PiggyPigalle · 09/09/2025 10:23

There's always self sabotage to be considered. Victim mentality.
I'm amazed that a noisy drone wasn't captured by someone's iPhone on board.

How would you know what you think or you don't know what to think having watched the video?

You asked if I thought it was doctored. I have no expertise in doctoring videos so I suggest my opinion carties no weight.

That’s a lot of burning for very little damage. Though it’s fair to say the Ukrainians are successfully using pyrotechnic drones, but it’s more like napalm and burns for ages, would have been the end of this boat.

Do you have a link to this report?

All I can find is the claim that there is a report but not the actual report:

https://maltadaily.mt/damage-report-reveals-freedom-flotilla-endured-two-aerial-strikes/

This article alleges that these are the findings of the report but doesn't link to the actual report.

Furthermore I struggle to see how there was even a damage report when the Captain of the Conscience refused to allow the vessel to be inspected:

"Prime Minister of Malta Robert Abela offered assistance on the condition that authorities be allowed to inspect the ship and cargo, but the captain declined the offer.[49][9]"

https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/May_2025_drone_attack_on_Gaza_Freedom_Flotilla

Anyway regardless of the report, both attacks "appear" to be caused by Israeli trained suicide bomber seagulls of which there is photographic evidence along with an unpublished official Government report from the St Ives Town Council in Cornwall, that nobody has actually seen but a "source" definitely confirms this stating "it's definitely those bastarding seagulls that did this, the other day one of them flew down and grabbed a pasty straight out of my hands - what more proof do you need!!"

Lastly anyone that denies it was the seagulls is a fascist genocide supporter.

The captain didn't allow the vessel to be inspected? I guess he didn't want to disturb his crew, that must be the reason.

I've heard rumours about seagull stomachs, but you can't believe everything can you?

This is what Maltese authorities said the last time the flotilla claimed they were attacked by drones.

Maltese authorities have released the long-delayed Marine Casualty Damage Report for the Conscience. These findings confirm key facts that the FFC has asserted from the beginning:

  • The vessel was subject to two aerial attacks.
  • There was no internal explosion that occurred; all damage resulted from external impacts.
  • The fire onboard was directly caused by the aerial strikes on the upper deck, which triggered cascading structural failures.
  • No high-risk or flammable substances were found inside the vessel that could have caused or contributed to an internal explosion.
  • There were no weapons onboard.
  • There was humanitarian aid onboard, though the report does not quantify it.

Damage Report Reveals Freedom Flotilla Endured Two Aerial Strikes

The Freedom Flotilla Coalition have stated that two aerial attacks were responsible for the damage sustained by the Conscience vessel near the edge of Maltese territorial waters.

Ive watched the video about the 'bomb' that was dropped on the boat. Fortunately, boat has little damage, didn't sink, some ash marks shown. A miracle indeed 🙄

I've seen footage of them precision stealing chips and can confirm they are deadly accurate.
