Second aid shipment for Gaza ready to sail from Cyprus, says its president
A second cargo of food aid was ready to depart by sea from Cyprus to Gaza on Saturday, the island's president said, after a first aid shipment landed in the besieged Palestinian enclave overnight. "The first ship has started its return to Cyprus, and we are ready to dispatch the second ship," Cypriot President Nikos Christodoulides told journalists. The second ship, with 240 tons of aid, was moored at Larnaca port awaiting a signal to sail.
