VARIOUS OF ACTIVISTS BOARDING BUSES AT ISTANBUL AIRPORT / BUSES LEAVING AIRPORT / BUSES CARRYING ACTIVISTS ARRIVING AT FORENSIC MEDICAL INSTITUTE ISTANBUL, TÜKİYE - OCTOBER 4, 2025: Activists from the Global Sumud Flotilla, who arrived in Türkiye after being detained by Israel, will undergo health examinations in Istanbul, Justice Minister Yilmaz Tunc said on Saturday. A plane carrying activists from the humanitarian mission, who were attacked and detained by Israel in international waters, landed at the Istanbul Airport on Saturday afternoon, officials said. The plane, which departed from Ramon Airport in Eilat, Israel, arrived at the airport at 3.50 pm local time (1250 GMT). As many as 137 people from the humanitarian flotilla, including 36 Turkish and 23 Malaysian citizens, arrived by the flight. "Following an attack that disregarded international law, our activist brothers and sisters who have arrived in our country will receive health examinations at the Istanbul Forensic Medicine Institute at their request, and their physical and psychological conditions will be carefully checked," Tunc said on the Turkish social media platform NSosyal. He said that after the forensic examinations, 11 public prosecutors will take the activists’ statements for informational purposes. "Brave hearts who do not remain silent in the face of oppression and stand with the people of Palestine are not just activists; they are true heroes carrying the conscience of humanity and serving as the voice of justice. Israel’s unlawful intervention in international waters, committing war crimes and crimes against humanity in Gaza, is an attack on truth, solidarity, and peace,” the minister added.
