Thunberg Deported from Israel: Activists' Gaza Aid Mission Thwarted

Greta Thunberg and fellow activists were deported from Israel on June 10, 2025, after their attempt to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza was thwarted. The Israeli government, referring to their boat as a 'selfie yacht', intercepted the activists and subjected them to medical checks before deporting them. Sergio Toribio, the only Spaniard on the aid mission, described the experience upon his arrival in Barcelona. "It was an incredible experience," he stated, adding that the activists faced unexpected challenges, including drones that attacked their boat. This incident highlights the ongoing tensions in the region and the challenges faced by those attempting to provide humanitarian assistance.
