    Far-right Israeli National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has posted a video showing himself taunting detained flotilla activists. The activist were part of a Gaza-bound aid flotilla which was intervepted by Israeli naval forces. The UK, France, Italy, Canada and the US were among the countries who condemned the behaviour of the Israeli minister. His actions also drew rare criticism from Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, who said they were "not in line with Israel's values". The activists were part of the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF). A rights group representing the GSF have demanded their release.
