Israel: Statement by the Spokesperson
The treatment of flotilla's activists in the video shared by Minister Ben Gvir is completely unacceptable, as also indicated by his own government colleagues.
Every detained person must be treated with safety, dignity and according to international law. We call on the Israeli government to ensure the protection and dignified treatment of these activists, including several EU citizens. We call for the speedy release of all detainees.
