Overview
- Thirteen Brazilians, including federal deputy Luizianne Lins, crossed via the Allenby/King Hussein Bridge and are being transported to Amman with embassy support and planned medical checks.
- Israeli forces intercepted several Global Sumud boats last week and brought passengers to the port of Ashdod before sending many detainees to the Ketziot facility.
- Brazil describes the flotilla as a peaceful effort to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza and condemns Israel’s blockade as a breach of international humanitarian law.
- The Brazilian embassy reports detainees experienced psychological pressure, inadequate food, and delayed medical care, and notes that some maintained a hunger strike.
- In addition to the Brazilian group, another 118 flotilla participants were deported on Tuesday as broader removals proceeded.
