Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu directly approved military operations against two vessels last month that were part of a Gaza-bound flotilla carrying aid and Palestinian supporters, including Swedish climate activist Greta Thunberg, according to American intelligence officials who spoke with CBS News.
Officials state that between September 8-9, the Israeli Navy launched drones from a nearby submarine that had been following the flotilla, dropping incendiary devices on both the Portuguese-flagged vessel Family and the British-flagged vessel Alma, while both boats were moored outside the Tunisian port of Sidi Bou Said in the Mediterranean Sea, over a thousand miles away from the Gaza Strip and Israel.

U.S. President Donald J. Trump: “I appreciate that Israel has temporarily stopped the bombing in order to give the Hostage release and Peace Deal a chance to be completed. Hamas must move quickly, or else all bets will be off. I will not tolerate delay, which many think will happen, or any outcome where Gaza poses a threat again. Let's get this done, FAST. Everyone will be treated fairly!”

For days and weeks after this took place, Israeli accounts and officials denied that an attack occurred, instead claiming that the “incendiary devices” dropped on the ships were actually just misfired flares by members of the flotilla, claiming that it was a “False Flag” to blame Israel.
