52 Hours on an Israeli Prison Ship: An Activist from the Gaza Aid Flotilla Tells His Story
An activist from the Gaza-bound humanitarian flotilla recounts being intercepted by Israeli forces and detained aboard the military ship Nahshon for more than 50 hours, describing violence, torture, and deprivation. The activist details beatings, being crammed into metal containers, limited food and water, and injuries left untreated. He says the experience mirrored decades of Israeli treatment of Palestinians, and that solidarity among detainees sustained them.
