At least 450 activists were aboard the flotilla, a coalition of several vessels seeking to deliver humanitarian aid to the blockaded Palestinian territory. Israeli forces detained them last week, and by Monday had deported Thunberg and 170 others to countries including Greece and Slovakia.

Over the weekend, reports circulated alleging that Thunberg and other detainees were mistreated while being detained by Israel, which the country's Foreign Ministry called "fake news."

Eyewitnesses on a flotilla carrying aid to Gaza described environmental campaigner Greta Thunberg being dragged, beaten, and paraded by Israeli forces after her detention. The accounts depict a scene of intimidation and mistreatment that shocked those on board.

Celebrity Climate activist Greta Thunberg claims she’s been subjected to heinous conditions inside a bedbug-infested Israeli holding cell following her detention as part of an aid flotilla bound for Gaza.
