Gaza journalist looking for more interviews.
Various members of the convoy from England are being interviewed now. I see the Manchester van on television, Oh the ambulances are arriving, this is great!! All packed with aid, people are rejoicing, this is amazing, truly amazing, there are no words for what I’m seeing now. People are on top of the vehicles celebrating, waving Palestinian flags, people crying, over joyed, this is too much.
Children who filled shoe boxes for the children of Gaza, Oh this is something to see. Everyone is so emotional, horns honking, cheering and drums beating. So emotional. Every vehicle that comes into Gaza must remain in Gaza.
Just saying that some of the people not he convoy have relatives in Gaza and it’s the first time they will see their families in many years, so emotional
