Paris: Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, who was arrested by the Israeli Navy along with 11 other activists for their symbolic attempt to break the blockade on the Gaza Strip, says they did nothing wrong. Speaking to reporters on Tuesday upon her arrival at Paris airport after Israel ‘deported’ her from the occupied territories, Thunberg said, ‘We were 12 peaceful volunteers sailing on a civilian ship carrying humanitarian aid in international waters. We did not break any laws. We did nothing wrong.’

According to Islamic Republic News Agency, Thunberg stated that the Israeli army kidnapped them in international waters. She described the incident as a continued violation of international law, accusing Israel of systematically committing war crimes against Palestinians by preventing aid from reaching those in need.

Thunberg also addressed criticism regarding the quantity of humanitarian supplies on the Maldeen, explaining that a larger vessel with more aid was disabled last month in the Mediterranean by Israeli drones.
