Overview
- Foreign Minister José Manuel Albares said Israel has agreed to let the final 28 Spanish participants leave on Monday, with repatriation contingent on final clearance and flights arranged by Madrid.
- Twenty-one Spaniards, including Ada Colau and Jordi Coronas, were deported Sunday after signing papers acknowledging illegal entry, a document some activists say they signed under pressure.
- Repatriated participants allege beatings, shackling, confinement in cages, deprivation of food, water and medicines, and denial of medical care during detention at Ktzi'ot/Saharonim prison.
- Defense teams led by Jaume Asens plan to file complaints and to request full detention and deportation records, including checks on the authenticity of signatures on expulsion forms.
- Israel defended the operation and detention conditions, with National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir labeling flotilla members supporters of terrorism, while activists maintain the boarding occurred in international waters.
