A sea convoy of food for Gaza returned to Cyprus on the Wednesday after death of World Central Kitchen (WCK) workers by an Israeli airstrike on Monday night.
A cargo ship carrying 240 tons of food, intended for residents of the besieged Palestinian enclave, returned to Larnaca, Cyprus after the deadly attack, dropping anchor just outside the harbor. A second ship, the Open Arms owned by a Spanish NGO who works with WCK, arrived earlier.
The undelivered aid was part of a shipment of about 340 tons sent to Gaza from Cyprus on March 30. The NGO workers killed in Gaza had just finished unloading 100 tons from a barge, also sent from Cyprus.
WCK, which has been operating in Gaza since October, has suspended its operations in the area after the bloody attack and turned aid ships back to Cyprus.
The Spanish charity Open Arms, which provided a lifeboat for the two expeditions organized by WCK, took a group photo of the activists wearing WCK T-shirts and hugging each other on the bow of the ship as it sailed to Cyprus .
