"Albares stated that the arrest was made outside the jurisdiction of Israel, adding, 'Of course, it is a kidnapping.'"
"The Global Sumud Flotilla said in a statement that, according to released activists, Abukeshek had been subjected to torture on an Israeli military vessel."
"The Israeli navy stormed 22 of the flotilla boats attempting to deliver aid to Gaza while they were in international waters, hundreds of miles from the strip."
Jose Manuel Albares expressed concern over the illegal detention of Saif Abukeshek, a Spanish-Swedish national, who was arrested during a raid on the Global Sumud Flotilla. Madrid has demanded his immediate release after he was taken to Israel for questioning. Albares stated that the arrest occurred outside Israel's jurisdiction and labeled it a kidnapping. The Israeli Ministry of Foreign Affairs claims Abukeshek has ties to Hamas, but no evidence has been provided. The flotilla was raided in international waters, resulting in the detention of 175 activists.
