Israel to Release Detained South African Activists TuesdaySix South Africans seized with the Global Sumud Flotilla will be repatriated via Jordan early Tuesday morning.
- Israel plans to free six South African activists detained during the Global Sumud Flotilla mission.
- The international relations department confirmed their release and repatriation will occur Tuesday morning through Jordan.
- Detentions happened after interception in international waters, with activists lacking proper legal representation.
- Concerns persist about alleged mistreatment and hunger strikes among the detained activists.
The South African government must hold Israel accountable for what they have done to our activists — kidnapping them in international waters — in violation of international and maritime law.— The Global Sumud Flotilla expressed the need for the South African government to take responsibility.
