GAZA (PIC)– The European aid convoy “Miles of Smiles – 8” arrived in Gaza on Saturday evening via the Rafah border crossing with the participation of 48 solidarity activists from Arab and foreign countries.
Issam Yousef the coordinator of the campaign said that the convoy carries with it two tons of medical equipment and 120 electric bicycles for the disabled.
He said that the convoy was the latest in a series of aid convoys recalling that seven earlier ones had arrived in Gaza on separate intervals carrying similar material along with baby milk medicines and special needs vehicles.
He said that the convoy was attempting to break the siege imposed on the Gaza Strip for the past five years adding that the convoy would continue to remind the world with the blockade that led to worsening health and living conditions in the absence of attention on the part of the world.
