Jewish Boat to Gaza
The Jewish Boat to Gaza was an initiative in an attempt to break the blockade of Gaza in late 2010 organized by Jews for Justice for Palestinians, a pro-Palestinian group based in London. The boat, a catamaran named the MV Irene, had eight activists on board, all of them either Israelis or Jews, including Holocaust survivors, from the United States, United Kingdom, or Germany, as well as two journalists, a total of ten passengers.
