Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu deemed National Security Minister Ben-Gvir's treatment of Gaza flotilla activists "embarrassing" and contrary to Israeli values. Despite international outcry, Ben-Gvir faces no formal reprimand.

Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has called the treatment of detained Gaza flotilla activists by National Security Minister Itamar Ben-Gvir “not in line with Israel's values and norms”, after a video of Ben-Gvir taunting the detainees sparked international outcry. However, while “extremely embarrassing” for the Israeli government, there has been little in the way of reprimand for Ben-Gvir, says France 24’s Noga Tarnopolsky.
