The Global Sumud Flotilla has departed Menorca for Tunisia after having to stop for a few days to repair some boats damaged by the effects of the storm.

The Global Sumud Flotilla made a "technical stopover" in Menorca early Wednesday morning on its journey to Gaza, the organization reported in a statement. The mission departed Barcelona on Sunday, although they had to return to the Catalan capital due to a storm at sea. Once weather conditions permitted, they went out again.
