追加: 2026-05-25

[00:00:00]Detainees dragged on their hands and knees in humiliation propaganda by Israel's security minister. And this time they're not Palestinian. The reaction has been diplomatic fury at the sadistic treatment of flatillaa activists. Appalling, degrading, and unacceptable. This is how EU leaders have slammed the footage. Israeli ambassadors have been summoned to their capitals from the UK to France to Italy to Canada. Staunch Israeli ally, US Ambassador Mike Huckabe said Bengavir has betrayed the dignity of his nation.

[00:00:33]Even Benjamin Netanyahu condemned his colleagues actions as not in line with Israel's values and norms. It reveals a rift at the heart of government. Foreign Minister Gideon Zar took to X to say Benir knowingly caused harm to our state and not for the first time. It followed footage at sea showing Israeli forces firing rubber bullets at the flatillaa vessels on which civilians sought to transport aid to Gaza. Roughly 430 passengers were seized and taken to Israeli detention. Following the fallout, Israel has announced the passengers are set for deportation.
