💨 Abstract

Hundreds of international activists planned to march in Gaza to protest aid restrictions imposed by Israel but faced obstacles from Egyptian and Libyan authorities. Preparations for the Global March on Gaza in Cairo were uncertain, with Egyptian authorities blocking a convoy from Libya and detaining some protesters. The event, aiming to be one of the largest recent demonstrations, comes as poverty continues to deepen in Gaza. Many Palestinians depend on humanitarian aid, with a growing risk of famine amidst an ongoing Israeli blockade.
