LONDON: The Australian captain of a Gaza aid flotilla ship has been moved from an Israeli prison four days after her vessel was intercepted in international waters.
Madeleine Habib was taken Sunday morning to the border with Jordan along with other activists from the flotilla, The Guardian reported.
Habib, who captained the ship Conscience, was detained on Wednesday along with more than 140 activists when their nine ships were intercepted by the Israeli military.
Known as the Freedom Flotilla Coalition and Thousand Madleens to Gaza, the vessels were attempting to break Israel’s blockade of the territory.
Habib, from Tasmania, was taken along with other activists to Israel’s high-security Ketziot prison in the Negev desert.
