Two Israelis were questioned by Belgian police after pro-Palestinian groups alleged they displayed Givati Brigade flags at Tomorrowland festival. The Israelis were briefly detained, interviewed, and released. Belgian authorities acted under universal jurisdiction law, allowing investigation of alleged crimes committed outside Belgium. The European Jewish Association expressed concern, while the Hind Rajab Foundation, which filed the complaint, celebrated the action. The Israeli embassy declined comment beyond confirming the release.
