A Brazilian activist has called for the release of four organisers of the Sumud Flotilla, which attempted to break the Gaza blockade, Al Jazeera English reported. The four have been detained in Tunisia since March. Activists say the organisers were arrested in connection with the flotilla's effort to challenge Israel's naval blockade of Gaza.
The Sumud Flotilla was launched as part of a broader campaign to draw international attention to conditions in Gaza. Details about the specific charges against the four organisers and the status of legal proceedings remain unclear. Their continued detention has prompted international advocacy for their release.
