The IDF intercepted a Freedom Flotilla Coalition boat carrying pro-Palestine activists, including Greta Thunberg, late Sunday.

The Madleen, a ship carrying aid to Gaza, was intercepted by Israeli forces on June 9. Here's what we know about the status its crew.

Shortly after their arrests, the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, the nonprofit that has staged dozens of efforts to reach Gaza to protest Israel, posted prerecorded videos on X showing the crew members saying that they had been “kidnapped.” They called on their home governments to put pressure on Israel to release them.

Greta Thunberg and her posse of international activists will be forced to watch footage of the Oct. 7 terror attack after Israeli forces intercepted their Gaza-bound “selfie yacht,” Israel’s defense minister revealed Monday.

The ministry later announced that the flotilla was making its way to Israeli shores, and announced that all passengers are expected to return to their home countries.
