Israel deports 137 members of the Sumud Flotilla to Turkey
The Israeli Foreign Ministry announced that 137 members of the 'Sumud' flotilla have been deported to Turkey. All activists were deported on a plane sent from Turkey to pick them up.

Those deported are citizens of the United States, Italy, Britain, Jordan, Kuwait, Libya, Algeria, Mauritania, Malaysia, Bahrain, Morocco, Switzerland, Tunisia and Turkey.
