Greta Thunberg Deported from Israel: Activist Speaks Out After Gaza Ship Seizure

Greta Thunberg Deported from Israel After Gaza-Bound Ship Seizure Activist Greta Thunberg was deported from Israel on Tuesday, June 10, 2025, after Israeli forces seized the Gaza-bound ship she was traveling on. The incident occurred approximately 200 kilometers off Gaza's coast. Thunberg, along with two other passengers and a journalist, were deported. Eight other passengers refused deportation and are expected to face an Israeli court today. Speaking at Paris' Charles de Gaulle Airport after her deportation, Thunberg stated, "We were detained...some of us deported, some are still there. I'm very worried about them." She described the situation during detention as "quite chaotic and uncertain." The video shows footage of Thunberg on a plane, a stark contrast to her usual avoidance of air travel. The incident highlights ongoing tensions in the region and underscores the international attention on the situation in Gaza. Thunberg's deportation raises questions about the treatment of activists and the freedom of navigation in the area. The continued detention of other activists remains a point of concern.
