Israel has deported 171 individuals, including climate activist Greta Thunberg, who were detained for participating in a Gaza-bound aid flotilla. The deportees, citizens of various European and North American nations, were sent to Greece and Slovakia. Israeli authorities have refuted allegations of mistreatment made by other deportees, while a lawyer representing detained activists cited rights violations and hunger strikes among those still held.
