Gaza Freedom Marchers to continue actions in Cairo, maintain pressure for border to be opened #GFM

Buses, hired to take the bulk of marchers from Cairo to Al Arish this morning, did not show up as scheduled, on instructions from the government. We know that some marchers who traveled to Al Arish on their own have been prevented from proceeding further. This was not a surprise. Tomorrow, 29 December, Gaza Freedom Marchers will continue with actions in Cairo, a day, incidentally that Israeli prime minister Benjamin Netanyahu is scheduled to visit. We are keeping up the pressure with the intent that Egypt should open the border and allow us to go to Gaza. Stay tuned for updates tomorrow. Goodnight!
