The Pak-Palestine Forum has posted that ex-senator Mushtaq Ahmad Khan — who is leading the Pakistani delegation on the Global Sumud Flotilla — confirmed that vessels are being boarded, but he himself has not been detained.

“Israel has begun seizing the flotilla’s ships and has also started abducting the international volunteers present on them,” the movement wrote in a post on X. “[Former] senator Mushtaq Ahmad Khan is currently not arrested.”
