Svensk mand i 40'erne tilbageholdt af israelsk militær

En svensk statsborger i 40'erne er blevet tilbageholdt af det israelske militær, efter at aktivistbåde blev stoppet på vej mod Gaza. Udenrigsministeriet bekræfter, at de følger sagen. Ifølge UD sidder manden varetægtsfængslet af Israel.

Tidligt torsdag stoppede det israelske militær omkring 20 både med aktivister nær Kreta i Middelhavet. Bådene var på vej mod Gaza. Aktivisterne, herunder adskillige svenskere, blev derefter bragt i land i Grækenland.

Ifølge Ekot er to personer tilbageholdt. Den ene er en svensk mand i 40'erne, hvilket Udenrigsministeriet bekræfter over for Ekot. UD oplyser til radioen, at de er bekendt med, at manden "sidder varetægtsfængslet af Israel", og at de følger sagen.

Organisationen bag konvojen, Global Sumud Flotillas, oplyser, at manden har svensk statsborgerskab, men er bosiddende i et andet EU-land. Ekot rapporterer, at Israels udenrigsministerium identificerer manden som leder af en organisation med forbindelser til terrorgruppen Hamas.
