Activists from a Gaza aid flotilla who were detained by Israeli authorities have disembarked in Crete, according to an AFP report. The flotilla, which aimed to deliver humanitarian aid to Gaza, was intercepted by Israel, leading to the detention of the activists.
The incident occurred as part of ongoing efforts to break the blockade on Gaza, with activists seeking to draw attention to the humanitarian situation in the region. The flotilla's passengers were later released and arrived in Crete, where they disembarked.
Details on the exact number of activists and the duration of their detention remain unconfirmed. The Israeli government has not issued an official statement on the matter as of May 1, 2026.
