Egypt has detained over 200 pro-Palestinian activists ahead of their march to the besieged enclave of Gaza, AFP quotes the organisers as saying.
Thousands of activists from across the globe are marching to the Gaza Strip to try to break Israel’s siege of the enclave, according to Al Jazeera.
Activists of the Global March to Gaza plan to coordinate with the Tunisian-led Sumud Convoy, which departed from Tunis on Monday and arrived in Libya on Tuesday morning.
It had planned to enter Egypt to reach the Rafah border.
