Environmental activist Greta Thunberg claims she suffered from \u201cmistreatment\u201d during her time in Israeli custody.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

The Swedish national was detained after being removed from the Global Sumud Flotilla, a fleet of some 40 vessels carrying aid to Gaza. According to correspondence seen\u00a0by<\/a>\u00a0The Guardian, an email was sent by the Swedish foreign ministry to Thunberg\u2019s family after her arrest, updating them on her condition.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Thunberg\u00a0had reportedly claimed in her correspondence with officials that she had been forced to take photographs while holding up flags (the identity of the flags is not currently known).<\/p>\n

\n
<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Lawyers, meanwhile, had previously asserted that the\u00a0Global Sumud Flotilla campaigners\u00a0were being subjected to a lack of food, while being denied medication and access to clean water. Fellow activist Windfield Beaver, a US citizen, claimed that Thunberg was \u201ctreated terribly\u201d and \u201cused as propaganda\u201d.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

Not only that, but an official who visited the 22-year-old reported that she was kept \u2018in a cell infested with bedbugs, with too little\u00a0food\u00a0and water\u2019.<\/p>\n

The aforementioned email read by the Guardian confirmed that the Swedish embassy had successfully met with Thunberg. \u201cShe informed of dehydration,\u201d it read. \u201cShe has received insufficient amounts of both water and food.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n

\u201cShe also stated that she had developed rashes which she suspects were caused by bedbugs. She spoke of harsh treatment and said she had been sitting for long periods on hard surfaces.\u201d<\/p>\n

Journalist Lorenzo D\u2019Agostino, another flotilla participant, claimed that Thunberg had been \u201cwrapped in the Israeli flag and paraded like a trophy.\u201d<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

The Israeli embassy, though, categorically denied the claims, labelling them \u201ccomplete lies\u201d.<\/p>\n

\u201cAll detainees from the Hamas-Sumud provocation were given access to water, food and toilets; they were not denied access to legal counsel, and all their legal rights, including access to medical care, were fully upheld,\u201d the embassy said.<\/p>\n

Thunberg is expected to be among over 70 people from several nations to leave Israel today (6 October) when they are deported to Greece. All told, a reported 437 activists, parliamentarians and lawyers made up the Global Sumud Flotilla, which was intercepted by Israeli forces in international waters.<\/p>\n

Thunberg and her fellow activists are said to have been held at a high-security prison in the Negev desert called Ketziot, or Ansar III.<\/p>\n
