Israel court extends detention of two Gaza flotilla activists amid abuse claims
An Israeli court on Sunday ordered a two-day extension of the detention of two foreign activists seized from a Gaza-bound flotilla, as a legal battle intensified over their arrest in international waters and allegations of abuse in custody. The pair, brought to Israel for questioning after their vessel was intercepted by Israeli forces, deny the accusations against them, while their lawyers argue they were part of a humanitarian mission and should be released immediately.
