Cyprus has plan for humanitarian sea corridor to Gaza

Nicosia, Nov 7: Cyprus will present its plan for a humanitarian sea corridor to Gaza when the Cypriot president meets other EU heads of state in Paris at an international donor conference for the besieged Palestinian enclave on Nov 9, an official said Tuesday. Government spokesman Constantinos Letymbiotis told reporters the initiative to ship aid from the eastern Mediterranean island will be discussed at length during the conference, which will also seek to address Gaza’s pressing needs including water, electricity and fuel supply. Christodoulides said his government is working with neighboring countries to set the initiative in motion. (AP)
