In a bombshell interview that's igniting fierce debate amid the Israel-Hamas war, climate activist Greta Thunberg has accused Israeli prison guards of brutal mistreatment during her brief detention last month, claiming.
She was "dragged," kicked, and humiliated in a
facility she described as devoid of "empathy or humanity.
The 22-year-old Swedish icon's harrowing account, shared
with The Telegraph, comes just as Hamas faces global outrage for withholding
the bodies of Israeli hostages, drawing sharp contrasts between her short stint
behind bars and the years-long nightmare endured by captives in Gaza tunnels.
Thunberg, arrested on October 3 while attempting to
deliver aid to Gaza aboard a humanitarian flotilla intercepted by Israeli
forces, spent roughly 72 hours in custody before her release.
In her first detailed public statement since the
incident, she painted a vivid picture of trauma: They dragged me to the
opposite side, they hit and kicked me.
She recounted being forced to drink from a tap near a toilet,
watching guards stomp on her signature green frog hat, and discovering her
suitcase vandalized with offensive graffiti, including slurs, drawings of male
genitalia, and an Israeli flag.
The whole thing is a blur because I was in shock and
pain, Thunberg told the outlet, emphasizing the psychological toll. "There
was no empathy or humanity.
Her allegations have no accompanying video or photographic evidence, a detail that's fueled skepticism from critics who point to Israel's history of releasing high-profile detainees like her without fanfare.
