<p>TUNIS, Tunisia (AP) — An international activist group seeking to deliver aid to Gaza on a flotilla says one of its boats was hit by what it believes was a drone while docked in Tunisia. Tunisian authorities denied a drone was involved, and said they are investigating a fire in a life jacket aboard the boat.</p>
<p>The Global Sumud Flotilla said in a statement overnight that a vessel known as the "Family Boat" and traveling under a Portuguese flag "was struck by a drone," but that no one aboard was hurt.</p>
<p>Footage posted on the group's social media showed a flash of light landing on one of the boats and setting off what appears to be a fire.</p>
<p>The group, whose flotilla was scheduled to leave Tunisia on Wednesday, is expected to give a news conference in Tunis later Tuesday about what happened. It said the incident would not derail its mission to deliver aid to Gaza.</p>
<p>The flotilla is part of a broad movement seeking to deliver aid to Gaza by boat.</p>
<p>The Tunisian Interior Ministry said in a statement that reports about a drone attack were unfounded, and that specialized security units are investigating the results of a fire in a life jacket.</p>
<p>The Israeli military and Israeli government did not immediately respond to requests for comment.</p>
