Poland's foreign minister requests ban on Israel's Ben-Gvir entering country

Poland wants to ban Israel's far-right police minister Itamar Ben-Gvir from entering the country, a foreign ministry spokesperson said on Thursday, after outrage in Warsaw over the detention of Gaza flotilla activists.

Earlier the Polish minister had summoned the Israeli chargé d'affaires over the detention of Gaza flotilla activists, including Polish nationals, demanding their immediate release and an apology.

"Poland firmly condemns the conduct of representatives of the Israeli authorities ⁠towards activists of the Global Sumud Flotilla detained by the Israeli army, including Polish citizens," Radoslaw Sikorski said on X.

He said Poland expected its citizens to be treated in line with international standards, and that consular officials were seeking access to detainees.
