Egypt Stops Pro-Gaza Activists from Reaching Rafah Border: Protest Halted in Cairo

Protesters who were stopped from marching towards the Gaza border protested that more than 100,000 Palestinians had been marching towards the Rabbah border since night, but Egyptian police and the army stopped them, and some officials said the march was stopped for security reasons.

Israeli forces are attacking Palestinians in the area and preventing them from receiving food and medical aid.

Volunteers from many countries, including Spain, France, Turkey, Canada, and others, planned to hold the Global March on Friday to protest the Israeli military’s denial of aid and food to the Palestinian people in the Gaza Strip.

Egyptian guards detained those who were supposed to participate in the protest in the hot sun, preventing them from moving anywhere
