Yemeni Gaza activist still detained by Israel

SANA'A, June 02 (Saba) - The Israeli authorities are still holding one of the three Yemeni lawmakers who were arrested during the assault on the Gaza aid flotilla.

The two other lawmakers were transferred to Jordan early Wednesday as a prelude to
sending them home.
The transfer of Haza'a Al-Maswari and Abdul Khaliq Bin Shaihoon came as Israel
started to release peace activists who were onboard the ship convoy that was raided
while
on way to deliver aid for the people in the Palestinian Gaza strip who have been
under Israeli blockade since 2007.
On Tuesday, the Israeli Army Radio said 250 of the activists had been deported.
It added that the release of a further 70 people was underway.
Ten activists were killed and many others were injured in the much-condemned
Israeli assault on the convoy on Monday.
