İsrail Eurovision Başarısını Kutlarken, Yardım Filosu Baskını ve Aktivistlere Kötü Muamele Küresel Tepki Çekti
İsrailli şarkıcı Noam Bettan, katılımına yönelik boykot çağrılarının gölgesinde düzenlenen Viyana'daki Eurovision Şarkı Yarışması'nda ikinci oldu; Savunma Bakanı Israel Katz, bunu İsrail'e karşı çıkan Avrupa hükümetlerine bir yanıt olarak nitelendirdi. Aynı günlerde İsrail güçleri, uluslararası sularda Gazze'ye insani yardım götürmek isteyen Küresel Sumud Filosu'nu durdurdu ve aktivistleri gözaltına aldı. Ulusal Güvenlik Bakanı Itamar Ben-Gvir'in elleri bağlı tutuklularla alay ettiği görüntüleri yayımlaması diplomatik krize yol açtı; çok sayıda ülke ve Avrupa Konseyi kınama açıklamaları yaptı. Sınır dışı edilen aktivistler, İsrail nezarethanelerinde cinsel saldırı, dayak ve 'su işkencesi' gibi kötü muameleye maruz kaldıklarını bildirdi. Fransa olayın savcılığa taşınmasını isterken, bazı AB ülkeleri Ben-Gvir'e yaptırım çağrısında bulundu. Öte yandan Uluslararası Ceza Mahkemesi savcısının savaş suçları ve insanlığa karşı suçlar gerekçesiyle Maliye Bakanı Bezalel Smotrich hakkında tutuklama talebi üzerine Smotrich bunu 'savaş ilanı' olarak değerlendirdi. Dokuz Batılı ülke Batı Şeria'daki yasadışı yerleşimlerin durdurulması için ortak açıklama yaparken, ABD, BM Özel Raportörü Francesca Albanese'e yönelik yaptırımları geri getirdi. Bu gelişmeler, İsrail'in uluslararası alandaki diplomatik yalnızlığını ve hukuki sıkışmışlığını derinleştiren bir döneme işaret ediyor.

Israeli minister praises Eurovision result amid boycott protests
Israeli minister praises Eurovision result amid boycott protests Israeli defence minister Israel Katz congratulated Israeli performer Noam Bettan after the singer finished second in the Eurovision Song Contest in Vienna, while criticising European governments that opposed Israel’s participation. In a post on X written in Hebrew and Spanish, Katz said Bettan’s performance was a response to what he described as an “incitement and defamation campaign” led by Spanish Prime Minister Pedro Sánchez and others. Spain joined Ireland, the Netherlands, Slovenia and Iceland in refusing to broadcast or participate in the contest in protest against the European Broadcasting Union’s decision to allow Israel to compete during the ongoing genocide in Gaza. Bettan’s song Michelle finished behind the winning entry from Bulgaria amid demonstrations during both the semifinal and final events.

Israel's Bezalel Smotrich says ICC arrest warrant request is 'declaration of war'
Israel's Bezalel Smotrich says ICC arrest warrant request is 'declaration of war' Sondos Asem on Tue, 05/19/2026 - 11:38 Finance minister says 'we will fight back with a vengeance' as prosecutors at Hague-based court seek his arrest for crimes against humanity and war crimes Israel's far-right Finance Minister Bezalel Smotrich is surrounded by Israeli settlers at a "resettlement" ceremony of Sa-Nur, south of Jenin, in the Israeli-occupied West Bank on 19 April 2026 (AFP) Off Israel’s finance minister Bezalel Smotrich on Tuesday said the arrest warrant application for him at the International Criminal Court amounts to a “declaration of war” and threatened immediate retaliation against Palestinians. “Last night I was informed that a request for a secret international arrest warrant had been filed against me by the criminal prosecutor of the Anti-Semitic Tribunal in The Hague,” the far-right minister said in a speech reacting to a report by Middle East Eye a day earlier. MEE on Monday reported that the office of the prosecutor of the ICC last month filed a secret arrest warrant application for Smotrich over alleged war crimes and crimes against humanity committed against Palestinians in the occupied West Bank. MEE understands that an evidence review took place on Wednesday last week to examine the possibility of two more warrant applications, including one for National Security Minister Itamar Ben Gvir, but they have yet to be filed. The charges against Smotrich include forced displacement as a crime against humanity and war crime, the transfer of Israel’s own population as a war crime, and persecution and apartheid as crimes against humanity. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); If approved by the ICC’s pre-trial chamber, the warrant for Smotrich would be the first ever issued by an international court for the crime of apartheid. The application for Smotrich had been ready for about a year but was only submitted by the office of the prosecutor on 2 April. Exclusive: ICC prosecutor's office seeks arrest warrant for Israel's Smotrich Read More » If judges issue his arrest warrant, Smotrich will become the third Israeli official wanted by the court, after arrest warrants were issued in November 2024 for Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu and then defence minister Yoav Gallant. “Issuing arrest warrants against the prime minister is a declaration of war. Issuing arrest warrants against the minister of defence and the minister of finance is a declaration of war," said Smotrich. "And in the face of a declaration of war, we will fight back with a vengeance,” he added, accusing the Palestinian Authority of starting a war by engaging with the ICC to provide evidence. Smotrich said he is “very proud” of his settlement expansion policies, and that he would use his powers to sign an immediate order to expel residents of the Palestinian village of Khan al-Ahmar in the occupied West Bank. “From today, any economic or otherwise, anything that I can harm within the framework of my powers … will be attacked. Not talk and gimmicks - actions.” It is uncertain how long judges will take to rule on the Smotrich application. ICC pre-trial judges typically take several months to rule on warrant applications, though timelines have ranged from roughly one month in the cases of Russian President Vladimir Putin and former Philippines President Rodrigo Duterte to six months for the Netanyahu and Gallant warrants. So far, the arrest warrant application for Smotrich has not been ratified by the judges and a decision could still be months away. Sanctioned by western states Since June last year, Smotrich and Ben Gvir have been the target of a coordinated international sanctions campaign over their policies and statements advocating the extermination and ethnic cleansing of Palestinians. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Both ministers live in West Bank settlements considered illegal under international law, and both have championed annexation of the territory and the return of Israeli settlers to Gaza. In June, the UK, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Norway jointly imposed sanctions on the pair, freezing any assets they held in those countries and barring them from entering. Albanese urges ICC arrest warrants for Israeli ministers over torture of Palestinians Read More » Other western states have since followed suit. In July, Slovenia became the first EU member to declare both ministers persona non grata, and the Netherlands, Belgium and Spain have imposed their own travel restrictions, with the Dutch ban extending across the 29-country Schengen Area. A proposal to sanction Ben Gvir and Smotrich at EU level has been on the table for nearly two years however. Then-foreign policy chief Josep Borrell first floated it in August 2024, calling the ministers' statements an "incitement to war crimes", but the proposal was rejected by member states for lack of the required unanimity. His successor Kaja Kallas revived the idea, and in September, the European Commission formally proposed a package combining a partial suspension of the EU-Israel Association Agreement with targeted sanctions on Hamas leaders, violent settlers and the two "extremist ministers”. On 11 May, the EU’s foreign affairs council agreed to sanction settler organisations and Hamas figures, but not the two cabinet ministers driving the settler policies. Ben Gvir and Smotrich were stripped from the list after Germany, Italy, Austria, Czech Republic and Hungary made clear they would not support their inclusion. The US has opposed the sanctions throughout, with Secretary of State Marco Rubio urging allies to reverse them and the administration imposing its own sanctions on ICC officials in an effort to halt the court's Israel-related investigations.

UN expert alarms over reports of Israeli fire on Gaza flotilla
UN expert alarms over reports of Israeli fire on Gaza flotilla United Nations Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territories, Francesca Albanese, expressed alarm after reports that Israeli forces fired on activists aboard the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla in international waters. In a post on X, Albanese accused Israel of being allowed to “threaten, kidnap and shoot at civilians” at sea and criticised the European Union over its support for Israel. The interception of the flotilla has drawn condemnation from several countries, including Turkiye, Spain, Jordan, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Brazil, Indonesia, Colombia, Libya and the Maldives in a joint statement issued by their foreign ministers. Meanwhile, Irish President Catherine Connolly said she was “very proud” of her sister Margaret Connolly, who is among those detained aboard the flotilla.

Israeli minister says Turkey should be treated as 'enemy state'
Israeli minister says Turkey should be treated as 'enemy state' Mera Aladam on Wed, 05/20/2026 - 11:39 Culture and sports minister threatens Ankara would 'pay a huge price' if it went to war with Israel Pro-Palestinian demonstrators take part in a protest against Israel's interception of aid ships bound for Gaza in international waters, outside the Israeli consulate in Istanbul, Turkey, 30 April 2026 (Kemal Aslan/Reuters) Off The Israeli minister of culture and sports has said Turkey should be treated as an “enemy state”, warning it could become Israel’s next major adversary. Speaking to Israeli news outlet Srugim on Monday, Miki Zohar made the remarks during a discussion about the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla, which sailed earlier this week from the Turkish port city of Marmaris and was later raided by Israeli forces. “We must begin to treat Turkey as an enemy state,” Zohar said. “If Turkey chooses the path of war with us, it will undoubtedly pay a very heavy price. Israel knows how to defend itself and how to harm those who harm it.” The minister added that Ankara would “no doubt pay a huge price” if it went to war with Israel. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); He also claimed that Turkish President Recep Tayyip Erdogan had said he would build an army to conquer Israel. Although Erdogan has been a fierce and vocal critic of the Israeli government, he has not publicly declared any intention to go to war with Israel. “There were Iranians who thought the same thing, and look where they are now. If the Turks think the same thing, they will be in a much worse situation,” Zohar said. His comments came after Israeli forces intercepted several vessels in international waters after they departed from Turkey as part of the Gaza-bound aid flotilla mission. Israeli media reported that the flotilla had been divided into “European boats” and “Turkish boats”, with the Israeli military allegedly planning to separate the vessels by nationality. 'Next Iran'?: Turkey accelerates 60,000-tonne aircraft carrier amid Israel tensions Read More » However, organisers rejected the claims, saying the flotilla did not include any Turkish-flagged vessels. “The Israeli military is fabricating an outright lie to isolate specific vessels and invoke past incidents - specifically the 2010 lethal assault on the Mavi Marmara, with which GSF has no affiliation,” they said. The raid drew international criticism, with Turkey’s Foreign Ministry strongly condemning Israel. “Israel's attacks and intimidation policies will in no way prevent the international community's pursuit of justice and solidarity with the Palestinian people,” the ministry said in a statement. Tensions between Turkey and Israel have escalated in recent months, with Israeli politicians from both the government and opposition increasingly comparing Turkey to Iran. Former Israeli Prime Minister Naftali Bennett, now a leading opposition figure, said at a conference in Washington in February that Turkey was “the next Iran”. Analysts have also suggested Turkey could replace Iran as Israel’s principal regional rival, amid growing tensions over the genocide in Gaza and competing influence in Syria. In an opinion piece for Maariv, columnist Boaz Golani wrote last month that Iran “will be forced to vacate the role of Israel’s great enemy”, arguing that either Turkey or Pakistan could emerge as its replacement.

Countries condemn Israeli minister's treatment of Gaza flotilla activists
Countries condemn Israeli minister's treatment of Gaza flotilla activists Israel has faced mounting international criticism after its national security minister released a video showing detained Gaza flotilla activists kneeling with their hands bound following the interception of aid vessels in international waters. Here are some national and international reactions to the footage: European Council President Antonio Costa said he was "appalled" by Ben Gvir's treatment of aid flotilla members attempting to enter Gaza. Britain summoned Israel's charge d'affaires over the video, with its foreign office saying the content "violates the most basic standards of respect and dignity for people". Italy's government said that Israel's treatment of flotilla activists was unacceptable and that it would summon the Israeli ambassador for an explanation. Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said the images were unacceptable and said Spain "will not tolerate anyone mistreating our citizens". Sanchez added that his government would push for Spain's ban on Ben Gvir entering the country to be urgently extended across the European Union. France's Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said he had summoned the Israeli ambassador after the video emerged, calling Ben Gvir's actions "unacceptable". Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman condemned the video images, saying they recalled “the darkest echoes of history” and said western silence over what he called occupation, apartheid and genocide risked normalising “lawlessness and atrocity”. Poland's foreign minister, Radoslaw Sikorski, said he had summoned the Israeli charge d'affaires over the detention of the activists, demanding their immediate release and an apology. Ireland's Foreign Minister Helen McEntee said: "We have raised in no uncertain terms the horror and dissatisfaction at the way in which our citizens have been treated." Greece urged Israel to release its detained nationals. Canada said it would summon the Israeli ambassador in protest at the video, described by Foreign Minister Anita Anand as "deeply troubling and absolutely unacceptable". The Netherlands will summon Israel's ambassador over its treatment of the activists, after the Dutch Foreign Minister Tom Berendsen said the images were "shocking". US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee criticised Ben Gvir over the treatment of the detained activists, and said the minister "betrayed the dignity" of Israel with his handling of the detainees.

Deported flotilla activists allege 'sadistic' sexual abuse and torture in Israeli captivity
Deported flotilla activists allege 'sadistic' sexual abuse and torture in Israeli captivity MEE staff on Fri, 05/22/2026 - 09:43 Activists report being stripped, 'water-tortured' and dragged along the ground with bound hands and feet Italian flotilla activists gesture upon arrival at Fiumicino Airport in Italy after being deported from Israel on Thursday (Remo Casilli/Reuters) Off Flotilla activists who were abducted and jailed by Israeli authorities while in international waters have reported being subjected to sexual abuse and torture while in Israeli captivity. Some 430 activists, who were held after Israeli forces raided the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla, were deported to Istanbul on Thursday evening. Footage showed activists arriving at airports clad in grey prison tracksuits and keffiyehs with their fists raised, as families and supporters greeted them. Upon arrival the activists reported being fired at with rubber bullets, beaten and subjected to sexual assault while in Israeli custody. Italian journalist Alessandro Mantovani, who is among the deportees, told reporters at Rome’s Fiumicino airport that he and others were“taken to Ben Gurion airport in handcuffs and with chains on our feet and put on a flight to Athens”. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); He said that Israeli soldiers “beat us up. They kicked us and punched us and shouted ‘Welcome to Israel’.” Miriam Azem, from the Israeli rights group Adalah, reported that one of the activists “was forced to strip naked and run while guards were laughing”. One activist said in a video interview that her hands and feet were bound as she was dragged by Israeli soldiers, adding that the cuffs were so tight that “my hands lost feeling”. "They laughed all the time. Super sadistic," she told reporters. "They took off my shirt, took pictures. Mistreated us all night long." Father of Gaza flotilla activist says UK ignored call for help after son seized by Israel Read More » Australian activist Juliet Lamont said she was “tied with cables, water tortured and sexually assaulted”. “People had broken ribs, were tased in the face, and injected with unknown sedatives.” Photos shared online appear to show activists who have sustained injuries from the alleged beatings. Brazilian activist Thiago Avila who was detained by Israeli during a previous flotilla operation published a video in which he alleged that activists were “raped” by Israeli soldiers. He said that there were “many cases of sexual violence … on the prison boat, on the way to the port of Ashdod”. Adalah said that Israel’s “entire operation”, including the “unlawful” raid of the aid vessels in international waters and the "systemic torture, humiliation, and arbitrary detention" of the activists on board, constitutes "a flagrant violation of international law". Global outrage The activists’ release follows global outrage over a video circulated online of far-right security minister Itamar Ben Gvir overseeing the humiliation and abuse of the detained flotilla participants. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); He was filmed waving an Israeli flag and confronting the detained activists as they were being manhandled and forced to kneel facing the ground by officers from the Israel Prison Service. The footage sparked a backlash inside Israel, though it was largely focused on concerns that the video had damaged the country’s standing abroad. It also drew condemnation from several world leaders, including officials from countries whose citizens were among those detained by Israel. Antonio Costa, president of the European Council, said he was "appalled" by the footage. Meanwhile, a number of countries, including the UK, Italy, Spain and France, summoned Israel’s charge d'affaires over the video.

Amnesty condemns Basque police 'excessive use of force' towards Gaza flotilla activists
Amnesty condemns Basque police 'excessive use of force' towards Gaza flotilla activists The Basque country police force detained four people at Bilbao airport in northern Spain on Saturday, including two activists from the Gaza-bound flotilla who had just returned home after being abducted by Israel. Video footage circulating online showed police officers violently beating activists and their supporters with batons, sparking outrage. Amnesty International condemned what it described as the “excessive use of force” by Basque police officers at the airport and called for “effective accountability” over the incident. “The images published show no legitimate cause for the use of force,” Amnesty added in a statement, raising concerns about the use of batons against people “already knocked down” on the ground. The Basque regional police, the Ertzaintza, which is administered separately to the Spanish police, has launched an internal investigation into the officers’ conduct, according to a statement.

US reinstates sanctions on UN's Albanese after appeals court pauses ruling
US reinstates sanctions on UN's Albanese after appeals court pauses ruling MEE staff on Thu, 05/28/2026 - 09:43 Special rapporteur Francesca Albanese back on US sanctions list two weeks after judge lifted measures against her UN Special Rapporteur for the Palestinian Territories Francesca Albanese in Belgrade on 17 March 2026 (Andrej Isakovic/AFP) Off The United States has reinstated sanctions on Francesca Albanese, the United Nations' special rapporteur on Palestine, after a federal appeals court temporarily paused a lower-court ruling that had blocked the measures on free-speech grounds. The decision was confirmed in a notice posted to the US Treasury's website on Wednesday. The Donald Trump administration sanctioned Albanese in July last year, shortly after her scathing report in which she named over 60 companies, including major US technology firms like Google, Amazon and Microsoft, which she said were involved in "the transformation of Israel's economy of occupation to an economy of genocide". The report called for the International Criminal Court (ICC) and national judicial systems to pursue investigations and prosecutions of corporate executives and companies. The sanction decision cited her recommendations that the ICC prosecute Israeli officials and executives of US companies. The designation has effectively barred her from travelling to the US and frozen her assets there. Albanese told Middle East Eye that the sanctions have also cut her off from the global financial system, including by blocking her ability to carry out regular daily transactions. In February, a lawsuit was filed by Albanese's husband, Massimiliano Cali, a senior World Bank economist, and the couple's US-born daughter, an American citizen, challenging the sanctions. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The family argued that the measures punished Albanese for her public criticism of Israel's genocide in Gaza and effectively cut her off from ordinary financial life. Albanese herself did not sue, after the UN declined to waive her institutional immunity to allow her to bring a claim in her own name. On 13 May, US District Judge Richard Leon issued a temporary injunction blocking the sanctions, siding with Albanese's family, and ruling that the sanctions likely violated the First Amendment by targeting her for her speech. In an opinion, Leon said "protecting the freedom of speech is 'always' in the public interest". He found that her recommendations to the ICC carried no binding force and amounted to her opinion, rather than any concrete action. Leon enjoined the designation in full, rejecting the government's request for narrower relief limited to her relatives. US government appeal The sanctions were reinstated after a three-judge panel of the US Court of Appeals for the District of Columbia Circuit suspended Leon’s injunction last Friday. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The order allowed the government to enforce the designation while the court considers a broader request to freeze the lower-court ruling during the Trump administration’s appeal. The appeals court emphasised that its order, an administrative stay, was procedural and should not be read as a ruling on the merits of the government's broader request. An administrative stay preserves the status quo for a short period while judges weigh a more detailed motion. Spain's leader Sanchez awards UN's Francesca Albanese Order of Civil Merit Read More » As a result, Albanese has been returned to the Treasury Department's Specially Designated Nationals list. The designation bars US persons from transacting with her, restricts her access to the financial system and prohibits her and her immediate family members from entering the US. The move reverses, for now, a brief window in which the measures were lifted. After Leon's ruling, the State Department confirmed it had temporarily removed Albanese from the list to comply with the injunction, while saying the step did not signal a change in policy. It added that it had appealed and would restore the designation as soon as it was able to. In its appeal, the Justice Department argued that Albanese, an Italian national, falls outside the protection of the US Constitution because she has not lived in the US for around a decade and the speech in question took place abroad. The government's motion described the injunction as "legally indefensible and grossly overbroad". "Yet if allowed to stand, it will undermine important national-security and foreign-policy interests of the United States," the motion read. The appeals court has not said when it will rule on the government's motion for a stay pending appeal. Albanese is among several figures sanctioned by the US over their work investigating international crimes in occupied Palestine. Since February 2025, the Trump administration has sanctioned the ICC's chief prosecutor Karim Khan, his deputy prosecutors and eight of the court's judges over their work prosecuting war crimes in occupied Palestine and Afghanistan. Three Palestinian NGOs have also been sanctioned for their engagement with the ICC to provide evidence of alleged crimes by Israeli officials.

Raids and patrols were also reported in Deir Dibwan, east of Ramallah, and Al-Khader, south of Bethlehem. Settlers also attacked Palestinian homes in the Ras al-Ein area of Qusra, south of Nablus, where a young Palestinian was stabbed and injured. Israeli forces also entered Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, firing tear gas toward homes and establishing a checkpoint. In Beita, south of Nablus, settlers reportedly seized several vehicles and sprayed Palestinians, including children, with pepper spray.

Fransa, İtalya ve Avustralya olayla ilgili soruşturma başlatırken, İsrail iddiaları tümüyle reddetti. Bu gelişme, uluslararası kamuoyunda İsrail'in Gazze ablukası ve yardım girişimlerine müdahale yöntemlerine yönelik eleştirileri yeniden gündeme taşıdı. Geçmişte yaşanan Mavi Marmara baskını gibi, bu olay da İsrail'in denizden yardım taşıyan sivillere karşı tutumunu mercek altına aldı ve diplomatik gerilim riskini artırdı.

BM Raporu: İsrail'in Çocukları Hedef Alması Soykırım Suçu
Birleşmiş Milletler İşgal Altındaki Filistin Toprakları Hakkında Bağımsız Uluslararası Soruşturma Komisyonu, yayımladığı yeni raporda İsrail’in Filistinli çocukları kasten hedef aldığını ve bu eylemlerin soykırım ile diğer vahşet suçlarını oluşturduğunu bildirdi. Rapora göre, çocuklara yönelik saldırılar sistematik bir nitelik taşıyor ve soykırım niyetinin temel göstergelerinden biri olarak değerlendiriliyor. Hamas yetkilileri, BM raporunu İsrail’in savaş suçları ve soykırım politikasını kanıtlayan bir belge olarak nitelendirdi. Raporun uluslararası toplum nezdinde İsrail’e karşı hesap verebilirlik sürecine katkı sunması bekleniyor. Komisyon, İsrail’in askeri operasyonları sırasında çocuklara yönelik ağır ihlallerin arttığını vurgularken, bu bulguların Lahey’deki uluslararası mahkemelerde delil olarak kullanılabileceği belirtiliyor. Rapor, Gazze’deki insani krizin derinleştiği bir dönemde tansiyonu daha da yükseltme potansiyeli taşıyor.
