Israel Deports 4 Freedom Flotilla Activists; Another 8 Refused Voluntary Deportation

HeadlineJun 10, 2025

Israel has formally placed under arrest eight of the 12 international activists from the Gaza Freedom Flotilla after they refused to sign a voluntary deportation order. One of those arrested is Rima Hassan, French Palestinian member of the European Parliament. Earlier today, Israel deported other Freedom Flotilla passengers, including Swedish activist Greta Thunberg. Massive protests erupted in France Monday in response to Israel’s raid of the Madleen in international waters as the ship attempted to deliver food and medicine to besieged Palestinians in Gaza. Five of the Madleen’s passengers were French.
