Israel has intensified its deportation of activists from the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF), expelling 137 individuals from 14 countries, including the US and UK. The flotilla aimed to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza but was intercepted by Israeli forces in international waters. Israeli authorities arrested around 470 activists, claiming the flotilla's actions violated a lawful naval blockade. The GSF condemned the interceptions as illegal and reported that many activists faced assaults during the process. Protests supporting the flotilla have erupted globally, with calls for the immediate release of detained activists. The situation has drawn significant international attention, particularly with the involvement of high-profile activists like Greta Thunberg.
