newspalestine-Besieged Gaza
The popular anti siege committee has declared that three activities would be organized on the Arab and international levels during the current Islamic fasting month of Ramadan against the Israeli siege of the Gaza Strip.
The committee in a press statement on Sunday said that the first would be an Egyptian popular convoy from Cairo to Gaza comprising MPs and leaders of parties and other forces that would carry medicine and foodstuff to the Strip on 10/9/2008.
Meanwhile, hundreds of Egyptian national figures called on the Egyptian masses to head to the Rafah crossing on 19/9/2008 and to storm it by force to end the siege on the one and half million Palestinians in Gaza.
A number of human rights figures in Egypt described Cairo’s blocking of the Rafah border terminal as a scandal, and hoped that the activists on Wednesday would succeed in breaking the siege.
