A Tasmanian woman aboard a second pro-Palestinian aid flotilla intercepted by Israel will be “indefinitely detained” in an Israeli prison unless she agrees to sign a waiver.

Madeleine Habib, who captained the Conscience vessel, was arrested by Israeli forces on 8 October and detained in Israel’s Ketziot prison for “illegally seeking to break Israel’s naval blockade on Gaza”.
