For very difficult conditions of their detention, two of the 27 Greeks who were repatriated from Israel, who participated in the “Global Sumudilla” decoration today, spoke of their detention conditions.
In particular, one of the 27 stated: “In prison was very difficult. Without food, no water, dirty … Nevertheless, and I want to emphasize it, the joy of participating goes beyond everything. There was no fear. We used to say slogans, we were singing and continuing, it was heard in all cells. It was very interesting because they were people from all over the world, from all states. So it was an international movement that doesn’t stop there …. We sent a message to the Palestinians that we didn’t forget them and that the world is with them. We have learned that there were large rallies in many European countries – and here – and that means. We just started this world movement. “
At the same time, another Greek of the 27 who participated in the decoration said, for his part: “The solidarity of all, both workers and youth, must be tangible and daily to the struggling people of Palestine. The conditions of detention do not matter. If we deal with this is wrong. The issue is what the Palestinian people are going through. I had stated before we left, that we are not heroes. Heroes are the ones who fight down there with the gun in hand. And they have to win. “
“We were buzzing quite a bit. They appeared compared to 2010, even more fascists, “said another of the 27 Greeks who were repatriated.
In the meantime, an Italian activist who was involved in the assistance to Gaza and was subsequently arrested by Israel, described complaints of abuse during his detention by the Israeli authorities, with little access to legal assistance. Lorenzo d’Agostino is one of the many participants in the deported deported by Israel and claimed to have been abused during their detention. In an interview with CNN, D’Agostino described that he was forced to sit or kneel in the cement in front of an Israeli flag for hours, left him in the cold with little clothes, confiscated his possessions, mocked him and destroyed him. “It shocked us the level of humiliation and unjustified cruelty that these people have shown against us,” he said.
Israel has categorically denied accusations of mistreatment of these people.
Hugs, kisses, tears and slogans. These were the images recorded in the last few hours in “El. Venizelos’, where crews – Greek and foreigners – of the Global Sumudilla crews disembarked.
