Clashes broke out between police officers and activists from the 'Sumud' flotilla to Gaza and citizens who were waiting for their arrival at the airport in Bilbao, in Spain's Basque Country. Four people were arrested in the clashes, and footage from the incident showed local police using batons against the activists. According to reports published in the country's media, a group of supporters was waiting for the six flotilla activists who returned from Turkey after being released from detention in Israel. The activists landed in Bilbao around 2:00 p.m. (local time), and according to reports, the violence began when the group of activists and their supporters refused to clear the way at the request of the police.
