Overview

• Israeli police filed charges and sought preventive detention, alleging the Spanish activist assaulted a guard at Ketziot prison after the Global Sumud flotilla was intercepted.
• An Israeli court in Beersheba accepted a plea agreement in which Rigo pleaded guilty to reduced charges, received a ten‑day sentence already served, was fined 10,000 shekels, and was ordered deported.
• Her deportation did not proceed on Saturday as first indicated, with her circle saying it is likely to occur Sunday and reporting she remains unreachable.
• Rigo told the court she suffered beatings, overcrowding, and poor food and water in custody, while the original allegation of biting was modified in the plea to scratching with fingernails.
• Several Spanish participants have already arrived back in Spain, and CUP’s leader announced plans for a collective complaint accusing Israel of “kidnapping” over the flotilla detention.
