Earlier reports claimed that Thunberg was kept in a bedbug-infested cell with limited food and water. According to correspondence seen by The Guardian, the Swedish foreign ministry said that an official who visited Thunberg noted she had been “sitting for long periods on hard surfaces” and had “developed rashes which she suspects were caused by bedbugs.”

The email also stated she suffered from dehydration and received insufficient food.

Thunberg had also reportedly been forced to hold flags for photos while in custody, though Israeli authorities strongly deny these claims, calling them “complete lies.”
