Israeli forces intercepted one of the remaining Gaza flotilla boats, stopping the vessel when it was about 82 nautical miles (around 150 kilometres or 95 miles) from Gaza, according to the flotilla's website tracker.

A livestream on the website showed Israeli forces in a dinghy pulling up to the boat, called the ''Andros,'' and activists with their arms in the air.

The screen then went dark with a message saying the boat had been intercepted.

A handful of ships were still within 100 nautical miles of Gaza and sailing toward it as of Tuesday afternoon.
