Israel’s far-right National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir has instructed prison authorities to prepare separate prison cells for the activists from the Madleen ship at Givon Prison in Ramla, where they will be held before being deported, Al Jazeera reports citing Israeli media.
Upon their arrival in Ashdod, the activists will be escorted to the prison in vehicles with tinted windows to minimise public attention, reports the Israel Hayom.
The Israeli minister has also directed prison officials to prohibit the activists from possessing any pro-Palestinian symbols during their detention and to deny them access to electronics such as televisions and radios in their cells.
