According to Podemos-Ahal Duguti, in Egypt, their representatives participating in the March to Gaza were forced to leave the hotel this Saturday afternoon, put on a bus, and taken to the country's capital, Cairo.

Maite Gartzia , Deputy Secretary-General of Podemos in the Basque Country, explains in her X account profile that they have gone to look for them at the hotel: "The police have come to get us out of the hotel! They are going to take us to Cairo! We have been taken out of this hotel by 11 people and they have taken us together in a van. They have done it in a pretty nice way," she writes.

 

Minutes later, Alberto Villareal, Head of Health of Podemos-Ahal Dugu and member of the legal team of the March to Gaza, has also written a message saying that "the deal has been good" and that there has been "consular communication." "Finally, the police have located us and will take us to Cairo," writes Villareal, adding that "the march continues because the needs of Palestine remain the same."

Before the Egyptian police intervention, the two activists shared another video this morning explaining that they were at the meeting point "waiting to make decisions."

The video reports that yesterday, Friday, the police "used force against the participants in the march, some of whom were arrested, injuring and deporting some of them."

Activists from all over the world wanted to get to Al Arix, the capital of northern Sinai, and from there, three days on foot to Rafah, and once there, they plan to camp 72 hours and then return to Cairo.

Foreigners are prohibited from entering northern Sinai unless expressly authorized by the authorities. 

This World March aims to denounce the Israeli blockade of Gaza on basic raw materials such as food or fuel. 

On the other hand, Podemos has announced that it will present initiatives to call for an end to the genocide in Gaza in the municipalities of the Basque Country where the party is represented.
