According to a press release issued May 10, the internationals "consider that their arrest is an illegal procedure conducted by an occupying power and is contradictory to all internationally protected human rights."

At the moment, the internationals are detained on a bus in handcuffs and are en route to an unknown location. The lawyer for the internationals has not been informed or provided with any access to them. Four other internationals who were arrested by the Israeli army during the attempt to bring in the food, are being held at Ramle prison by the Israelis and have been hunger striking to protest their deportation since last Thursday. Three are refusing water.

The list of the internationals is as follows:

Nauman Zaidi (USA), Robert O’Neill (USA), Larry Hales (USA), Kristen Schurr (USA), Alister Hillman (UK), Allan Lindgaard (Denmark), Stefan Coster (Sweden) Erik Alger (Sweden), Mary Kelly (Ireland), Jacqueline Soohen (Canada).
