ATHENS, Greece — Defying a government order, a small French boat quietly left Greek waters early Tuesday and set course for the Gaza Strip, coordinators announced. It was the first vessel to successfully depart Greek territorial waters aiming to be part of an international flotilla challenging Israel’s naval blockade. But organizers were undecided as to whether the vessel, carrying eight pro-Palestinian activists, a journalist and three crew members, would continue. It was unclear that the boat had enough fuel to reach the Gaza coast.
