The European Union issued a formal condemnation of the treatment of flotilla activists seen in a video shared by Minister Ben Gvir, calling it "completely unacceptable." The EU called on Israel to ensure the protection and respectful treatment of all detainees, including EU citizens, and demanded their swift release.

Italian PM Meloni:
The images of the Israeli minister Ben Gvir are unacceptable. It is inadmissible that these demonstrators, including many Italian citizens, are subjected to this treatment that violates human dignity.
The Italian Government is immediately taking, at the highest institutional levels, all necessary steps to secure the immediate release of the Italian citizens involved.
Italy further demands an apology for the treatment reserved to these demonstrators and for the total contempt shown toward the explicit requests of the Italian Government.
For these reasons, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation will immediately summon the Israeli ambassador to request formal clarifications on what has occurred.

Hamas statement:
Hamas condemns Ben-Gvir’s latest visit to the Al-Aqsa Mosque compound, calling it a “provocative incursion” and accusing Israel of advancing “Judaization” efforts with full government backing.
The group says the move violates the site’s sanctity and will not change its status, insisting Al-Aqsa “belongs solely to Muslims.”
Hamas urges Palestinians to mobilize at the mosque and calls on Arab and Islamic states, along with the international community, to act against what it describes as ongoing violations.
Israel Hayom reports an alleged plot to assassinate National Security Minister Ben Gvir was foiled by Shin Bet and police, with a 20-year-old suspect accused of links to jihadist elements abroad and planning a suicide attack.
