Pro-Palestinian Tunisians Protest Detention Of Global Sumud Flotilla Activists By Israel
A pro-Palestinian protester raises his fist as others wave Palestinian flags and chant slogans during a demonstration in Tunis, Tunisia, on October 4, 2025. The demonstration aims to protest Israel's detention of Tunisian activists participating in the Global Sumud Flotilla humanitarian mission and to demand their release. Demonstrators also protest against what they call the war of extermination and starvation inflicted on the people of Gaza. The Israeli military intercepts the Global Sumud Flotilla ships and detains all participants on board. The Global Sumud Flotilla is an international solidarity mission that sets sail with hundreds of participants, including activists, politicians, humanitarian groups, and public figures from dozens of countries, to break Israel's blockade of Gaza amid the ongoing attacks on the enclave. Participants aim to deliver food, water, and medicine to civilians in Gaza, which faces a humanitarian crisis amid Israel's siege. (Photo by Chedly Ben Ibrahim/NurPhoto)
