Greta Thunberg was detained by Israeli forces in early October 2025 after participating in a Gaza aid flotilla that was intercepted by the Israeli military. As of early October 2025, she remains in Israeli custody pending release, but no specific release date has been announced so far. Activists and reports indicate she has faced mistreatment during detention, although Israeli authorities deny these allegations. Previous deportation from Israel occurred in June 2025 after an earlier Gaza-bound aid flotilla interception. The current detention is connected to her participation in the Global Sumud Flotilla in late 2025.
There is no confirmed date yet announced for her release.
