Gaza protesters to sail from Cyprus for second 'blockade breaking' voyage
By JERUSALEM POST STAFF
Protesters who defied Israel's blockade of the Gaza Strip to bring aid to Palestinians last month are making a return voyage, a trip organizer said Tuesday.
Free Gaza organizer Greta Berlin said about 20 protesters will sail Wednesday from Cyprus aboard a boat named Hope for the 20-hour trip to the Strip.
Berlin said Irish Nobel peace prize winner Mairead McGuire, Palestinian Legislative Council member Mustafa Barghouti and an Italian opera tenor would be among the passengers.
She said protesters would deliver a consignment of medicine and ferry Palestinians back to the east Mediterranean island on the return trip.
