Testimonies Reveal ‘Torture, Humiliation’ Of Flotilla Activists

Pro-Palestinian activists who were on board the Global Sumud Flotilla reported being mistreated by Israeli authorities following their arrest last week.

One Spanish activist, Goretti Sarasibar, told Reuters after his deportation that the detainees were forced to watch videos of Hamas’s attack on 7 October 2023.

“They didn’t give us food all day,” he said. “Now we are super happy eating, as we were starving.”

Dutch activist Marco Tesh said he could not breathe at one point “because they put something to my face and they tied my hands to my back.”

Another one of the deported activists, Rafael Borrego, said, “At any time that any of us called a police officer, we risked that seven or more fully armed people entered to our cell, as they did on mine, pointing us with weapons at our heads, with dogs ready to attack us, and being dragged to the floor.”
