Beaten, tortured, and humiliated—these are the shocking allegations surrounding the detention of 22-year-old climate activist Greta Thunberg in Israel. Her arrest after joining a Gaza-bound humanitarian flotilla has ignited global outrage, with disturbing accounts now surfacing from witnesses and rights groups. Thunberg was reportedly among more than 400 activists detained by the Israeli navy on 1 October 2025. As the world demands answers, serious questions are being asked about her treatment, and that of her fellow activists, inside Israeli detention centres.
