Environmental activist Greta Thunberg stated this morning, October 7th, 2025, that Israel's halt of the Gaza aid flotilla's humanitarian mission is 'violating international law,' urging the international community to maintain focus on the plight of Palestinians. Thunberg's statement, reported by Reuters via X between 9:06 AM and 9:35 AM UTC, specifically addressed the interception of the flotilla. She emphasized the need for continued international attention on the humanitarian crisis in Gaza. This development follows earlier reports from this morning, October 7th, 2025, where the Gaza Health Ministry accused Israel of 'health genocide' against the healthcare system in Gaza, according to an AJENews report. French President Emmanuel Macron also called for an immediate ceasefire and the release of all hostages, expressing solidarity with victims of Hamas terrorism. Hamas, in turn, criticized what it termed an 'unprecedented Arab failure' regarding the situation in Gaza. Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu stated this morning that 'We are approaching the end of the Gaza war.' Earlier in the reporting window, between 7:35 AM and 8:35 AM UTC, seven Palestinians were wounded by Israeli fire near aid distribution centers in southern Gaza, according to Gaza's ambulance and emergency officials. These incidents occurred amidst ongoing Israeli military operations. Previous reports from this morning also detailed a child killed by Israeli bombing in Khan Younis, and Israeli aerial and artillery bombardments in southern Gaza.
