Six steering crew members were onboard at the time, including 22-year-old Swedish activist Greta Thunberg.
No one was injured.
“Acts of aggression aimed at intimidating and derailing our mission will not deter us,” the Global Samud Flotilla said.
“Our peaceful mission to break the siege on Gaza and stand in solidarity with its people continues with determination and resolve.”
The GSF released CCTV footage of the moment the boat was struck, with passengers onboard heard screaming for help.
“We’ve been hit. Fire,” someone can be heard yelling.
Israel has not yet commented on the strike.
The GSF is a citizen-led maritime initiative with a mission to deliver humanitarian aid to Palestinians in Gaza.
The organisation says it is investigating the strike and will release more information when available.
