Israel has faced mounting international criticism after its national security minister released a video showing detained Gaza flotilla activists kneeling with their hands bound following the interception of aid vessels in international waters.
Here are some national and international reactions to the footage:
European Council President Antonio Costa said he was "appalled" by Ben Gvir's treatment of aid flotilla members attempting to enter Gaza.
Britain summoned Israel's charge d'affaires over the video, with its foreign office saying the content "violates the most basic standards of respect and dignity for people".
Italy's government said that Israel's treatment of flotilla activists was unacceptable and that it would summon the Israeli ambassador for an explanation.
Spain's Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez said the images were unacceptable and said Spain "will not tolerate anyone mistreating our citizens". Sanchez added that his government would push for Spain's ban on Ben Gvir entering the country to be urgently extended across the European Union.
France's Foreign Minister Jean-Noel Barrot said he had summoned the Israeli ambassador after the video emerged, calling Ben Gvir's actions "unacceptable".
Iran’s foreign ministry spokesman condemned the video images, saying they recalled “the darkest echoes of history” and said western silence over what he called occupation, apartheid and genocide risked normalising “lawlessness and atrocity”.
Poland's foreign minister, Radoslaw Sikorski, said he had summoned the Israeli charge d'affaires over the detention of the activists, demanding their immediate release and an apology.
Ireland's Foreign Minister Helen McEntee said: "We have raised in no uncertain terms the horror and dissatisfaction at the way in which our citizens have been treated."
Canada said it would summon the Israeli ambassador in protest at the video, described by Foreign Minister Anita Anand as "deeply troubling and absolutely unacceptable".
The Netherlands will summon Israel's ambassador over its treatment of the activists, after the Dutch Foreign Minister Tom Berendsen said the images were "shocking".
US Ambassador to Israel Mike Huckabee criticised Ben Gvir over the treatment of the detained activists, and said the minister "betrayed the dignity" of Israel with his handling of the detainees.
