'We were treated like animals', deported Gaza flotilla activists say
Following their detention by Israeli authorities, activists from the Gaza flotilla claimed that they were "treated like animals" during their capture and deportation. The Global Sumud Flotilla, which was made up of activists from all over the world, was sailing toward Gaza to deliver humanitarian aid when it was stopped by Israeli naval forces in what the participants claim to be international waters. Before Israel began deporting people, over 400 people, including citizens of multiple nations, were held in detention. After being expelled, many of the deported activists arrived in Istanbul and shared stories of humiliation, intimidation, and violence. They alleged that Israeli forces used excessive force during the raid, deploying armed troops and water cannons to stop the flotilla. They claimed that while they were detained, they were subjected to verbal and physical abuse, were kept in harsh conditions, and were deprived of sleep, food, and water. Some activists claimed they were forced to kneel for hours, faced insults, and were struck when they tried to move. Others said that at detention centers, lights were kept on throughout the night and guards would enter rooms shouting and banging on doors to prevent rest.

World Reacts to Hamas’s Response to Trump’s Gaza Plan
# World Reacts to Hamas’s Response to Trump’s Gaza Plan The international community has been closely watching the unfolding dynamics in the Middle East following Hamas’s sharp response to former U.S. President Donald Trump’s newly outlined plan for Gaza. The idea, presented as part of a larger plan to bring stability to the region, has sparked strong reactions on multiple fronts, including condemnation, cautious support, and a lot of discussion about its viability and how it will affect relations between Israel and Palestine in the future. Trump’s Gaza plan, unveiled with significant fanfare, centers on a blend of reconstruction, demilitarization, and strict oversight. It calls for major international investment in rebuilding Gaza’s war-torn infrastructure, promises humanitarian aid, and proposes security guarantees for Israel. In exchange, Hamas would be required to disarm, renounce violence, and allow a transitional governing body under international supervision to administer the territory until elections could be held. The plan, according to Trump, offers Palestinians “a pathway to peace and prosperity” while ensuring Israel’s security interests remain paramount.
