Israeli soldiers beat and tortured flotilla organisers Saif Abukeshek and Thiago Ávila after abducting them in international waters near Greece in the early hours of Thursday morning, lawyers and diplomats have said. After illegally intercepting 22 boats and kidnapping around 200 activists hundreds of miles from Gaza, Israel transferred the majority to Greek authorities, but refused to release Abukeshek and Ávila. Instead, it transported them back to an Israeli desert prison, where Palestinians are routinely tortured. Brazilian activist Ávila was dragged face-down across the floor and beaten so badly he passed out twice, lawyers said, after visiting him on Saturday. His wife, Lara Souza, said an embassy official told her he had been temporarily blinded by his injuries, with his left eye still swollen shut, but he was being denied medical treatment. In a brief visit, where he was separated from the consul by a glass screen and not able to speak freely, he reported pain all over his body, especially in his hand and shoulder, and said that soldiers had threatened to throw him overboard and target his wife and two-year-old daughter. Abukeshek, who had been sailing on an observer boat and did not intend to go to Gaza, was “in shock”, his wife Sally Issa said. He was forced to lie face-down on the floor of an Israeli warship for two days, lawyers said, blindfolded and with his hands bound behind his back. Spain has demanded Israel release Abukeshek, who is Palestinian but holds Spanish and Swedish citizenship. On Friday, prime minister Pedro Sánchez said he had been "illegally abducted by the Netanyahu government". On Sunday, the activists appeared before an Israeli court, where a judge extended their detention by two days. Lawyers demanded their immediate and unconditional release, telling the court the entire process was "fundamentally flawed and illegal", and describing Israel's actions as a "retaliatory measure against humanitarian activist leaders". The two men have now been transferred back to solitary confinement in Shikma prison, where they are being held in windowless cells. Both are on hunger strike, with Ávila saying he will not leave without Abukeshek.

Geneva: Thiago Ávila and Saif Abu Shek were not released with the other participants after interception and are currently taken by Israel. They have been abducted by Israel and are being kept under unlawful detention. Being in international waters to deliver aid to Gaza is not a crime. Israel continues to be allowed to act with imputing and face no consequences for illegal actions and violations of international law. UN member states must act now The reported torture of a civilian activists, combined with the unlawful transfer of detainees from European waters, marks a dangerous escalation with far-reaching legal and moral consequences. Failure to act now risks not only the safety and lives of Saif Abukeshek and Thiago Ávila, but further erodes the credibility of international law in the face of ongoing atrocities in Gaza. All the UN member states must take immediate action to ensure the safety of all flotilla participants and the release of Thiago and Saif. Release them now!!!!!!

Ya asegurado el Reichstag, se capturó la imagen más emblemática de la derrota nazi. El 2 de mayo de 1945, Yevgeny Khaldei inmortalizó el momento: la bandera soviética ondeando sobre Berlín. Hoy, 81 años después, esa fotografía sigue siendo uno de los símbolos más poderosos del final de la guerra en Europa. Y también un recordatorio incómodo para la narrativa de Hollywood : fue el Ejército Rojo quien cargó con el peso decisivo de la derrota del nazismo, pagando con millones de vidas una victoria que el tiempo no debería simplificar ni olvidar.

Saif Abu Keshek, a leading member of the PCPA - an organization designated and sanctioned by the United States as a Hamas front - and Thiago Ávila, who operates with the PCPA and is suspected of illegal activity, have arrived in Israel. They will be transferred for questioning by law enforcement authorities.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​ Both will receive a consular visit from the representatives of their respective countries in Israel.

Last photo of Brazilian tourist, 26-year-old Juliana Marins, who was left to die by her Indonesian tour guide after she fell during a hike on Mount Rinjani. After becoming exhausted during the trek, Juliana was left behind while the guide continued ahead with the rest of the group. Not long after, she slipped and fell hundreds of meters down the mountain. Drone footage later showed she was still alive after the fall, trapped on a steep slope below the trail. Rescue teams reportedly knew where she was but failed to reach her in time, leaving her without food, water, or proper protection in the cold. Days later, Juliana was found dead. An autopsy said she died from severe trauma and internal bleeding after the fall.
