A convoy consisting of buses and private cars set off from Tunisia towards Gaza to draw attention to the ongoing blockade by Israel. Organized by activists and medical professionals, the effort aims to traverse through Libya and Egypt to reach the Rafah border crossing. The convoy's goal is to demand the end of the humanitarian crisis in Gaza, which has seen a 20-month blockade amid a military conflict. Despite low expectations of entering Gaza, organizers hope to send a strong message of solidarity to the Palestinian people.
The convoy speaks directly to our people in Gaza and says, 'You are not alone. We share your pain and suffering,' stated Yahia Sarri, an organizer.
The aim is to demand 'the immediate lifting of the unjust siege on the strip,' as asserted by the Tunisian civil society groups behind the convoy.
