Israel has deported two foreign activists, Saif Abu Keshek and Thiago Ávila, who were detained after leading a humanitarian flotilla attempting to break the naval blockade of Gaza.
The activists, part of the Global Sumud Flotilla, were intercepted in international waters and held for over a week, sparking condemnation from human rights groups, the United Nations, and several governments. Allegations of mistreatment, including hunger strikes and reports of abuse, intensified calls for their release. Their detention and subsequent deportation have reignited debate over Israel's blockade of Gaza and the legality of intercepting aid missions in international waters.
The incident has drawn widespread attention to the humanitarian situation in Gaza and the risks faced by activists seeking to deliver aid.
