‘We cannot take our eyes away from Gaza’ says Greta Thunberg after release from Israeli detention

Swedish activist Greta Thunberg on Monday spoke publicly for the first time following her release from Israeli detention, where she said that she was beaten and forced to kiss the Israeli flag. Thunberg was among 171 people deported by Israeli authorities after being detained for participating in the Global Sumud Flotilla, a mission aimed at breaking the Israeli siege and delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza. Speaking at Eleftherios Venizelos Airport in Athens, the Greek capital, Thunberg stressed that her personal ordeal was not the central issue. “I can talk for a very long time about our mistreatment and the abuses we faced in prison, trust me,” she said. “But that is not the story. Let me be very clear, there is a genocide going on in front of our very eyes. A live-streamed genocide.” Support stories that matter.
