KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 4 (Bernama) — The 23 Malaysians in the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) mission who have been detained by the Zionist regime since Thursday will be flown out of Israel to Istanbul today on a special flight arranged by Turkiye, said Datuk Seri Anwar Ibrahim.
The Prime Minister said all 23 Malaysians are currently on their way to Ramon Airport in southern Israel.
“Following discussions with the Malaysian intelligence chief in Ankara, together with our ambassador and the Malaysian Embassy there, it was decided that they should stay in Istanbul for about one to one and a half days to undergo health checks due to trauma and stress resulting from Israel’s harsh and cruel actions.
“I have agreed to this, and they are expected to return home either tomorrow night or the day after,” he said in a Facebook Live broadcast today.
