A video of Greta Thunberg aboard a ship en route to Gaza has gone viral, highlighting the ongoing humanitarian crisis in the region. The video features Thunberg responding to a comment by US Senator Lindsey Graham on X (formerly Twitter), where he expressed hope that Thunberg and her friends 'can swim.' Thunberg's response was measured but firm, stating that the focus should be on the humanitarian crisis, not on mocking activists. "This says a lot about their priorities," she stated. The video also highlights the challenges faced by those delivering aid to Gaza, with Thunberg mentioning drones circling their vessel.
