UK Foreign Office ‘very concerned’ about Gaza flotilla detainees

LONDON: The UK Foreign Office has voiced its concern over the fate of around 470 activists set to be taken by Israeli authorities to a prison in the Negev Desert. The activists — including environmentalist Greta Thunberg, Nelson Mandela’s grandson Mandla Mandela and a former Royal Air Force pilot — were part of the Global Sumud Flotilla trying to break the siege of Gaza. They were arrested by Israeli forces in international waters before being transferred to the city of Ashdod for processing.
