“An Israeli court has approved the continued detention of eight international activists [abducted] from the Madleen aid boat, which was intercepted by Israeli [pirates] in international waters on Monday. The eight detainees had refused to sign deportation papers, unlike four other activists, including Greta Thunberg, who were forcibly deported on Tuesday. According to Al-Araby Al-Jadeed, The New Arab’s Arabic-language sister site, the activists will remain in custody for an unspecified period while Israeli immigration authorities process their deportation. … [Legal center] Adalah maintains that the court ruling is invalid because it is based on an illegal entry into Israel, which, they argue, did not occur. The Madleen was sailing in international waters and heading toward Gaza, part of the State of Palestine, not Israeli territory. The organisation also argued that the interception of the vessel was a violation of international law.” (06/11/25)
