DUTCH ACTIVIST SPEAKING TO REPORTER (English) AMSTERDAM, NETHERLANDS - MAY 22: A group of Dutch activists and journalists who were intercepted by the Israeli military aboard the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla arrived at Amsterdam Airport Schiphol on Friday, May 22, following their deportation from Israel. A crowd of emotional relatives, friends, and human rights supporters carrying banners gathered at the airport terminal to welcome the group back. Ben-Gvir posted a video on social media Wednesday, showing himself taunting pro-Palestinian activists who were zip-tied and forced to kneel after being detained by Israeli forces in international waters. The Global Sumud humanitarian aid flotilla said Tuesday that all 50 vessels in its convoy had been seized by Israel. The flotilla, carrying 428 people from 44 countries, departed last Thursday from the Turkish district of Marmaris in a new attempt to break the illegal Israeli blockade imposed on the Gaza Strip since 2007.
