Libya’da Alıkonulan 10 Gönüllü Arkadaşımız Derhal Serbest Bırakılmalıdır! 🚨
Global Sumud Filosu Yönetim Kurulu Üyesi Beheşti İsmail Songür:
Kara konvoyunda yer alan ve şu an Libya’da Hafter güçleri tarafından haksız yere alıkonulan 10 gönüllü arkadaşımız için acil çağrıda bulunuyoruz. Oradan aldığımız haberlere göre durum her geçen dakika daha da kritik bir hal alıyor!
Gönüllülerimiz Hafter güçleri tarafından psikolojik ve fiziki şiddete ve işkenceye maruz bırakılıyor.
Arkadaşlarımız maruz kaldıkları bu zulme karşı açlık grevine başlamıştır.
Aralarında tansiyon ve şeker hastası olan kardeşlerimizin sağlık durumu giderek ağırlaşıyor.
Hiçbir geçerli sebep yokken, yalnızca “ülkeye kaçak girdikleri” yalanına sığınılarak tutukluluk süreleri keyfi olarak 1 ay daha uzatıldı.
🕊️ Mehdi is released.
After nearly three weeks of detention, Mehdi Bouzguenda has been released and reunited with his friends and family in Tunisia. We celebrate his freedom.
We will not look away.
None of us are free until all of us are free. Mobilize. Keep the pressure on.

But 10 of our kidnapped volunteers remain detained in Benghazi. Their immediate release is non-negotiable.
And they are not alone. Nearly 10,000 Palestinian prisoners are held by the israeli regime.
Every single day, tens of thousands of people around the world are detained unjustly, their rights ignored, their suffering invisible.
We will not look away.
None of us are free until all of us are free. Mobilize. Keep the pressure on.

URGENT UPDATE: Illegally detained Sumud volunteers are now on their 4th day of a dry hunger strike (no food, no water) and their condition is critical.

URGENT UPDATE: Illegally detained Sumud volunteers are now on their 4th day of a dry hunger strike (no food, no water) and their condition is critical.
Since Monday, ten people detained in Benghazi have been refusing food, with many also refusing water, in protest of prolonged illegal detention, mistreatment, and being denied legal counsel. Some have been forced to break the strike, but many continue as their health deteriorates.
Their lives are at risk. They’ve received no medical care and are being held in “black sites" (unknown areas).
We demand their immediate release and we need you to act now.
Call. Post. Pressure the authorities. Share this update widely.

“They kept kicking until I had no breath.”
Arno recounts brutal assault he endured after israeli forces intercepted their boats. Beaten so severely that he suffered broken ribs and a collapsed lung, describing the extreme violence participants faced during the interception.

Arno recounts the brutal assault he endured after israeli forces illegally intercepted their boats in international waters. Beaten so severely that he suffered broken ribs and a collapsed lung, his testimony is one of many describing the extreme violence participants faced during the interception.
Videos filmed by journalists Omar Al-Gedi and Mahmoud Shaweesh capture residents pulling casualties from the rubble, children covered in blood being rushed into ambulances, and crowds screaming in panic as flames and smoke filled the area.
🚨 Israel Burns More Palestinians Alive Under U.S.-Backed Ceasefire
Palestinians carried burned and wounded children through the streets after an Israeli airstrike hit a residential home in central Gaza City, killing at least 7 people, including two young girls, and wounding more than 20 others, according to the Palestinian Red Crescent.

Israel continues to carry out daily strikes on homes and residential neighborhoods across Gaza and Lebanon despite ongoing U.S.-backed ceasefire agreements, while mediating parties in the Gaza talks — the United States, Qatar, Egypt, and Turkey — remain largely silent about blatant ceasefire violations. Over 920 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza since Israel agreed to a ceasefire last October.

They crossed into the 5+5 security zone yesterday afternoon to negotiate safe passage for our humanitarian mission to Gaza. Last contact was at 3:22 p.m. local time. They have not been heard from since.
The detained are civilians from Spain, Poland, the USA, Argentina, Uruguay, Portugal, Tunisia, and Italy—doctors and human rights defenders who volunteered to deliver aid and stand with the Palestinian people.
They were detained by a security force affiliated with the Libyan Arab Armed Forces (LAAF) and are still being held by Eastern Libyan authorities (GNS).

He says he was beaten in a dark room by more than five people, kicked, punched, tasered in multiple places, and handcuffed so tightly that the restraints cut into his wrists and restricted blood flow. He says he still needs treatment for concussion-like injuries.
Ko Tinmaung, a Toronto-based Rohingya activist, has been released after more than 96 hours in Israeli detention following Israel’s hijacking of the Global Sumud Flotilla and the abduction of its civilian participants.
His testimony is horrifying.
He says he was beaten in a dark room by more than five people, kicked, punched, tasered in multiple places, and handcuffed so tightly that the restraints cut into his wrists and restricted blood flow. He says he still needs treatment for concussion-like injuries.
He also says he witnessed other detainees with broken ribs, head wounds, blood from their ears, eye injuries, broken noses and broken teeth. Most gravely, he alleges sexual assaults, including people being tasered on their genitals.
Tinmaung’s testimony also exposes the racial dimension of Israeli violence. He says he was mocked as “Ahmed”, assaulted further, laughed at because of his skin colour, and treated as if his passport had no value because he was brown.
This was a civilian-led humanitarian mission carrying food, aid and basic supplies to Gaza. So where is Canada? Where are the human rights organisations? Where are the global leadership councils, the moral authorities, the professional defenders of accountability?
Silence now is not neutrality. It is complicity.

Gazans marched in solidarity with the Global Sumud Flotilla following the Israeli Navy’s interception of the vessels in international waters.
Activists released from Israeli detention have reported severe abuse and sexual violence at the hands of Israeli guards.
BREAKING:
🇲🇾 The Malaysian government says it is prepared to take Israel to the International Court of Justice over the alleged kidnapping and torture of activists aboard the Gaza-bound Global Sumud humanitarian aid flotilla.
Interconnected global repression.
We are outraged by the violent assault by the Ertzaintza
(Basque autonomous police) against newly returned flotilla participants at Bilbao
Airport.
Refuse repression. Resist oppression. Rise up in solidarity.

This is what is what the spread of violence looks like. The result of unchecked aggression green-lighted by world powers.
Refuse repression. Resist oppression. Rise up in solidarity.
Not just one bad apple.
The violence against the Flotilla began long before Ben Gvir’s disgusting intervention. And the violence against Palestinian’s has been going for since the Nakba.

Netanyahu criticised Ben Gvir - this is something, the zionist regime is realising that it is losing public support. Yet we cannot allow them to fool us into pinning all of this on one person. This is the entire system. We cannot stomach a world where this is normalized.
What can you do today send a message to the world that this violence is unacceptable?
Refuse. Resist. Rise.
This is the systemic violence of the IOF and the lengths they will go to continue their illegal siege and continuing annexation of the West Bank.
We refuse. We resist. We Rise.
Alex describes the ‘obvious pleasure’ israeli guards were getting from ‘hurting us as much as they possibly could’.
He describes ‘concentration camp’ like conditions on the prison boat and treatment ‘magnitudes worse’ than the last time he was in Kziot after a previous intercepted Flotilla mission. He saw people shot at point blank with rubber bullets .. lost feeling in his hands after they were zip tied and yanked…he passed out.
This is the systemic violence of the IOF and the lengths they will go to continue their illegal siege and continuing annexation of the West Bank.
We refuse. We resist. We Rise.
“Please, if this can be a lightning rod moment, let it be that … join us wherever you are and rise up so that we can end this occupation, end this colonialism, end this violence.”
Free Palestine NOW.
At least 15 cases of sexual assaults, including rape.
Shot with rubber bullets at close range.
Tens of people’s bones broken.
While the world’s eye is trained on the suffering of our participants, we cannot emphasize enough that this is a mere glimpse of the brutality israel imposes daily on Palestinian hostages.
Don’t let up. Statements of condemnation are not enough. This moment must be seized by people worldwide to apply the necessary pressure to end this colonial violence. Pressure officials. Escalate boycott and divestment tactics. Organize direct action.
“Please, if this can be a lightning rod moment, let it be that … join us wherever you are and rise up so that we can end this occupation, end this colonialism, end this violence.”
Free Palestine NOW.
Former Egyptian diplomat and Global Sumud Flotilla participant Mohamed Elewa was among the 428 activists released by Israeli captors this morning and was expected to arrive in Egypt this afternoon.
We urge Egyptian authorities to confirm that he has safely arrived
in Egypt.
JUST IN:
Two Italians detained by Israel from the Gaza flotilla have returned home saying they’d been beaten and mistreated – allegations denied by Israeli prison officials
Italian legislator, Dario Carotenuto, said he experienced the “longest seconds” of his life when Israeli forces pointed rifles at activists in a detention facility.
