Egypt Is Expected to Block Global March to Gaza, Israel Katz Says
- Members of Progressive International announced plans to undertake a peaceful, eight-day march beginning June 12 in Cairo, Egypt, with thousands of participants from 31 countries aiming to reach the Rafah border crossing near Gaza.
- The march responds to Israel’s blockade since March 2, which has blocked all food, medical supplies, and humanitarian aid entering Gaza, worsening famine for two million people.
- Thousands of activists from over 30 countries, including health workers and artists, will march about 48 km from Arish to Rafah, holding rallies and camping near the crossing.
- Organizers call for an immediate ceasefire, permanent reopening of Gaza’s borders, and sustained international pressure, with spokesperson Roshan Daddo encouraging widespread campaigns urging governments and corporations to impose comprehensive economic sanctions aimed at weakening the Israeli state’s financial and diplomatic standing.
- The campaign highlights the humanitarian crisis and aims to pressure governments and institutions to end the siege and allow aid, despite uncertain Egyptian authorization and increased Sinai military presence.
