all friends of Palestine

Our
situation is now at a crisis point! Riot has broken out in the port of Al- Arish.

This
late afternoon we were negotiating with a senior official from
Cairo who left
negotiations some two hours ago and did not return. Our
negotiations with the official was regarding taking our aid vehicles into
Gaza.


He
left two hours ago and did not come back. Egyptian authorities called over 2,000
riot police who then moved towards our camp at the port.

We
have now blocked the entrance to the port and we are now faced with riot police
and water cannons and are determined to defend our vehicles and aid.

The
Egyptian authorities have by their stubbornness and hostility towards the

convoy, brought us to a crisis point.

We
are now calling upon all friends of palestine to mount protests in person where
possible, but
by any means available to Egyptian representatives, consulates and Embassy's and
demand that the convoy are allowed a safe passage into Gaza tomorrow!
