Former Pakistani senator Mushtaq Ahmed Khan, who was leading the Pakistani delegation on the Gaza-bound Global Sumud Flotilla, has been arrested by Israeli forces, who intercepted the flotilla and boarded the ships. “Former Senator Mushtaq Ahmed Khan has been arrested by Israeli occupying forces. This is the time to step out of your homes and demand the release of Senator Mushtaq Ahmed and the volunteers from 44 countries with him,” said the Pak–Palestine Forum on X. The advocacy group further wrote: “Only one ship has managed to escape, i.e., [the] observer boat, whose duty was to collect information and escape. Our second delegate Syed Uzair Nizami was sailing on the observer boat and shared the information regarding the interception of Senator Mushtaq Ahmed Khan’s ship.”
