Greta Thunberg, a climate activist, was one of 12 crew members on board the British-flagged yacht Madleen when Israeli forces seized it during a nighttime boarding operation. In an effort to deliver humanitarian aid and raise awareness of the situation worldwide, the yacht was trying to breach the naval blockade of the Gaza Strip. In the video that surfaced after the seizure, Thunberg claimed to have been "kidnapped" and urged her "comrades" to demand her return. The Madleen is now under Israeli control and is being diverted to an Israeli port, according to confirmation from the Israeli Foreign Ministry.
