Baghdad-INA
The first ship carrying aid is preparing to sail from Cyprus to Gaza, while the Zionist bombing led to the fall of dozens of martyrs yesterday, Saturday, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health.
The sea road aims to confront the restrictions imposed by the Zionists on the arrival of aid, more than five months after the war that left Gaza’s 2.4 million people struggling to survive.
The Spanish charitable organization Open Arms said that the ship, which docked three weeks ago in the Cypriot port of Larnaca, “will be ready” to sail at a later time, but it is awaiting final permission.
This will be the first shipment transported to Gaza via the sea corridor from Cyprus, the closest member state of the European Union.
The organization explained that the occupation authorities are inspecting a load of “two hundred tons of food, rice, flour, and cans of tuna” in the port of Larnaca.
She pointed out that the American charitable organization World Central Kitchen, which entered into a partnership with Open Arms, has teams in the besieged Gaza Strip that are “constructing a dock” to unload the shipment.
However, no details were provided about the exact location where this aid will be delivered, who will be responsible for distributing it once it reaches the Gaza Strip, or ensuring its security.
