Greta Thunberg deported by Israel
Greta Thunberg has been deported from Israel following her failed attempt to sail to Gaza and deliver aid to Palestinians. Israel has released an image of the despondent climate campaigner onboard a flight to Paris, despite Ms Thunberg's refusal to use air travel because of its environmental impact. 'Greta Thunberg is departing Israel on a flight to France,' the Israeli foreign ministry said in the post. The 22-year-old appeared to be sitting on the back row of the plane in an economy seat and the five-hour flight will probably emit more than half a ton of CO2 per person. Ms Thunberg, along with 11 other activists onboard the Madleen, were intercepted by Israel's military early on Monday and taken to the port of Ashdod. She declared that she had been 'kidnapped' by 'Israeli occupation forces', but was later pictured smiling as soldiers handed out sandwiches and bottles of water. Upon arrival at Ashdod, Israel Katz, the Israeli defence minister, ordered the activist group, part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, to watch a video of Hamas's Oct 7 atrocities. Ms Thunberg had set out to protest against Israel's military campaign in the Gaza Strip and its restrictions on the entry of humanitarian aid. This is a breaking news story.
