'Israel' prepares prison cells for Madleen activists, Spain summons diplomat
Israeli Occupation's chargé d'affaires in Madrid was summoned Monday by the Spanish Foreign Ministry for a formal reprimand, according to Hebrew Channel 7.
Earlier today, 'Israeli' forces raided the vessel off the coast of Gaza. The Madleen, part of the Freedom Flotilla Coalition, was carrying international activists aiming to break the ongoing blockade on the Palestinian territory. The coalition reported losing contact with the ship after 'Israeli' soldiers boarded it.

Footage from the scene showed 'Israeli' naval boats and low-flying drones circling the vessel. Hebrew media later confirmed all passengers were detained and the ship was towed to Ashdod Port.
Israeli Occupation’s prison service announced that Givon Prison in Ramla is prepared to receive the activists. According to Israel Hayom, the facility has set up separate cells, following instructions from National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir to prohibit communication devices, radios, televisions, and any Palestinian symbols.
