On
5th December, four women
including the Undercurrents book keeper left the UK with a convoy to the
Middle East,
bringing aid to the refugee camps of Gaza.
They raised money to purchase a 12 seater Van for the disabled and joined ambulances, and HGVs and
refrigerated trucks. They will leave with vans filled with much needed Humanitarian Aid bound for the people of Gaza.
The Convoy organised by Viva Palestina, a registered charity, and the Palestine Solidarity Campaign (PSC)
will travel through France, Italy, Greece, Turkey, Syria, Jordan and Egypt before entering Gaza.
Janet Hussein, Ingrid Bousquet and d Murphy are all members of Swansea Palestine Community Link
which campaigns for justice for Palestine. Joti from London makes up the fourth member.
Convoy driver and Undercurrents worker, D Murphy said
‘The people of Gaza are lacking most of the basic necessities so the vehicles will be carrying critical Medical,
Maternity and Post-natal Supplies, as well as much needed supplies for the Schools – paper, exercise books, pens and crayons.’
As well as delivering Aid, the objective of the convoy is to raise awareness about the siege of Gaza,
to show solidarity with the Palestinian People.You can donate funds to support the convoy getting to Gaza
