Greta Thunberg acknowledges ‘mistreatment’ while held in Israel
Activist Greta Thunberg has alluded abuse while being held in Israel after arriving in Greece.
Thunberg told journalists shortly after arriving: “I could talk for a very, very long time about our mistreatment and abuses in our imprisonment, trust me. But that is not the story.”
Instead, Thunberg urged world leaders and ordinary citizens to end their “complicity” with the “genocide” being carried out against Palestinians in Gaza, on the eve of the second anniversary of the war.
“We cannot take our eyes away from Gaza,” Thunberg said.
Jordan receives 130 Gaza flotilla activists deported from Israel
Jordan’s Foreign Ministry says the activists that arrived in the country are from Bahrain, Tunisia, Algeria, Oman, Kuwait, Libya, Pakistan, Turkiye, Argentina, Australia, Brazil, Colombia, the Czech Republic, Japan, Mexico, New Zealand, Serbia, South Africa, Switzerland, the UK, the US and Uruguay.
State news agency Petra reported the ministry, in cooperation with the relevant Jordanian authorities, facilitated activists’ crossing and provided them with the necessary assistance.
Israel faced international condemnation last week after its military intercepted all 42 boats of the Global Sumud Flotilla, carrying aid to Gaza, and abducted more than 450 activists. Israel previously deported dozens of other activists to Italy and Turkiye.
