ISTANBUL 

Swedish activist Greta Thunberg will be deported to Greece on Monday after being detained aboard the Global Sumud Flotilla, which was sailing toward the Gaza Strip to break Israel’s blockade, the Israeli channel i24News reported Sunday.

The channel said that Thunberg will arrive in Greece along with Greek nationals who were also detained by Israel after participating in the flotilla.

It added that a total of 165 activists will be deported on the flight.. 

Thunberg was among the more than 400 activists, parliamentarians and lawyers detained after Israeli forces attacked the Gaza-bound aid flotilla Wednesday. Some of the detainees have since been deported, while legal proceedings for others are still underway.

According to correspondence seen by The Guardian, Thunberg told Swedish officials that she had been held in a cell infested with bedbugs and provided with insufficient food and water.

The British newspaper also cited another detainee as saying that Israeli forces forced Thunberg to hold flags for photos.

Other flotilla participants corroborated the claims of Thunberg's mistreatment. Turkish activist Ersin Celik told Anadolu that Israeli forces "severely tortured Greta before our eyes" and "made her crawl and made her kiss the Israeli flag."

Italian journalist Lorenzo D'Agostino said she was "wrapped in the Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy."
