A ship loaded with 200 tonnes of humanitarian aid for Palestinians in conflict-ravaged Gaza left from Cyprus’s Larnaca port on Tuesday, a spokeswoman for the NGO operating the vessel said, AFP reports.
“They have left,” Laura Lanuza from Spanish charity Open Arms told AFP.
The ship embarked on the journey at around 0650 GMT, the first such shipment along a maritime corridor from Cyprus aimed at carrying aid to desperate Palestinian civilians in Gaza.
