# Israel has deported Swedish campaigner Greta Thunberg, a day after the Gaza-bound aid boat she and 11 others were on, was intercepted by Israeli forces in the Mediterranean. According to Israel’s Foreign ministry, Thunberg departed Tel Aviv for France this morning after she agreed to be deported. Five of the six French citizens detained alongside her had refused to sign their deportation orders and would now be subject to judicial proceedings. Their yacht was intercepted while trying to deliver aid to Gaza in defiance of Israel.
