Local Editor

Sixty French organizations launched a charity campaign to gather funds to send French aid ships towards Gaza in the frame of a second internationally-led flotilla to Gaza.

The Second International Freedom Flotilla is expected to set sail in the upcoming April of May.

In this context, the campaign's coordinator Thomas Somar said in an interview that the pro-Palestinian French organizations are working on achieving the outmost political support for this initiative.

Somar also referred that many French figures adopted the idea, including political parties, syndicates and judicial organizations.

Furthermore, the French coordinator expressed that a person or organization believing in Human's rights cannot oppose an initiative that aims at convicting the Gaza siege and breaking it, in addition to delivering humanitarian aid to the impoverished area and its civilians.

Thomas Somar also added that this initiative also aims at demanding the Zionist entity to respect international laws, referring that the fund gathering campaign was launched all over the French territories.

The campaign's coordinator estimated the amount of money needed for this initiative as hundred thousands of Euros, which will be gathered for humanitarian aids for the besieged Gazans.
