Two Gaza flotilla activists, Noa Avishag Schnall and Anna Liedtke, describe being abducted and assaulted by Israeli prison guards during detention last fall after a Gaza-bound flotilla attempt. Their first-person account details guards seizing them, beating them and subjecting them to other mistreatment while they were held alongside fellow activists. The allegations raise questions about detention conditions and human rights oversight for activists arrested after maritime protests.
