Wave Goodbye to Six More Passengers Aboard the Solidarity Ship "Madleen": Departure of Prominent Activists Confirmed by Israel
Gaza activists depart after six additional confirmations from Israel
Ċheck out the pics, fam! Israel's Foreign Ministry has posted X photos showing six more activists from the intercepted Gaza solidarity ship, including Yasemin Acar from Germany and French EU parliamentarian Rima Hassan, now en route home[4][5].
Remember Greta Thunberg, the Swedish environmental crusader? Well, she was among the four activists Israel already deported a few days back. The rest refused to sign expulsion papers, but now, it seems, they've caved in[4]. Twelve activists in total were on board the ship. Here's a quick rundown of the remaining two: their names and details remain uncertain, but they're scheduled for deportation this Friday[4].
So what happened? Early Monday morning, the Israeli army nabbed the "Madleen" some 200 kilometers from the Gaza coast, within international waters[4]. According to the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, the ship was en route to the Gaza Strip with humanitarian aid in tow, although Israel insists it's a PR stunt[4].
Defense Minister Israel Katz coined the term "selfie yacht" to describe the boat[4]. The Israeli Foreign Ministry's X post deviously declared: "Bye-bye - and don't forget to take a selfie before you leave."[4]
In case you're curious, the remaining two activists' identities are still shrouded in mystery[4]. For up-to-the-minute updates, keep tabs on organizations such as the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, Amnesty International, or other human rights groups monitoring the situation[1][3].

The community policies of various nations may address the recent incidents involving activists and their deportation from Israel, particularly those aboard the Solidarity Ship "Madleen." These events, rooted in a political context, are also interconnected with general news, crime, and justice.
The ongoing war-and-conflicts in the Middle East have once again brought the issue of employment policies into focus, as the activists, employed in various capacities, were prevented from delivering humanitarian aid to the Gaza Strip.
