HOPE CONVOY UPDATE X1 ~Thursday 27th

I had one quick phone call this morning from my friend. She said that they were at the Rafah border right now waiting to cross over back into Egypt. She said they were kept very busy the entire time they were inside Gaza visiting one place after another. Yesterday they went to another Hospital, this one only 200 metres from the Israeli border. This hospital was attacked by Israeli criminals during the genocide in Gaza, clear war crime!

She also said the media was also at this hospital yesterday and there were interviews done, but I do not see any of the so called "news" agencies carrying this, or any other news of the convoy. What a disgrace! Especially for Aljazeera, a supposedly "Arab" station, and also PRESSTV only carried one short interview with the convoy organiser inside Gaza. Israel continues its "PR" war in the media every day getting its lying stories and excuses carried on air and in print and online. Whilst the plight of those inside the Palestinian concentration camp have virtually no coverage except what WE do online, that's not enough! People should complain NOW to these news channels such as Aljazeera and Presstv, they should continue to cover the stories of all convoys into Gaza for as many days as there are victims in Gaza. That means 5350 days for each one injured, and 1455 days for each one murdered. Anything less is a disgrace!
