The Israeli troops have taken control of the British-flagged charity vessel Madleen, which had tried to break a naval blockade of the Gaza Strip. The boat--operated by the pro-Palestinian Freedom Flotilla Coalition (FFC)--with its crew of 12, including activist Greta Thunberg, is now heading to a port in Israel, officials said on Sunday.

The FCC posted a pre-recorded "SOS" video of Thunberg on X and said, " the volunteers on 'Madleen' have been kidnapped by Israeli forces. Pressure their foreign ministries and help us keep them safe!"

Unless they do something to her while they're holding her hostage.

Exactly who says that they will let them go. They could very well hold them indefinitely call them terrorist and torture them. I don't see a single powerful government intervening when by law they should. I hope they stay safe and are released.

There is little to gain from torturing them.
