Senior European delegation to visit Gaza

The head of the government committee to break the siege, Hamdy Shaat, said that a senior level European delegation is expected to visit Gaza Strip next Friday.

Shaat, in a statement on Wednesday, said that the visit falls in line with attempts to break the oppressive Zionist siege imposed on the Palestinian people in Gaza for the past four years.

He added that the delegation comprises 56 European solidarity activists from 12 countries, noting that the visit is the first of its kind as far as the number is concerned.

The committee chairman hoped that the visit would succeed in achieving its goals, asking the delegates to get acquainted with the suffering of the Strip’s inhabitants especially following the last Israeli aggression that left thousands of casualties.
