EVENT NOTICE
IRISH SHIP TO GAZA
Press Conference on Monday with Irish Participants in Major Flotilla to Gaza
A press conference will be held on Monday morning to present the passengers who will travel on the M.V. Saoirse, the Irish-owned vessel that will participate in Freedom Flotilla 2 within the next 10 days. The Irish ship will carry 25 crew and participants and will join many other ships in a large flotilla to Gaza. The flotilla is expected to be larger than that which was attacked on 31 May last year by Israeli forces.
Venue: Buswell’s Hotel, Dublin (across from Dail Eireann)
Time: 11am, Monday, 20 June.
The Irish participants will begin to leave on Monday for the port of departure in the Mediterranean, where the Saoirse is currently docked. All crew and passengers will be at the port by Thursday 23 June and the ship is expected to set sail on Saturday 25th. It will meet up with the other ships on Monday 27 June and they will then proceed as a flotilla towards Gaza.
We look forward to seeing you at the press conference on Monday.
