Gunpoint arrest ordeal won't stop my return to Gaza
AN aid worker today vowed to return to Gaza after being stopped at gunpoint from delivering medical supplies and food.
Theresa McDermott, 42, is back at home in Pilrig after being released from 12 days in prison in Israel following her arrest off the Gaza coast.
She was one of nine passengers – along with an archbishop, an 80-year-old professor and four journalists – aboard a cargo ship which was trying to deliver 60 tonnes of aid.
Israel is blocking supplies being delivered to Gaza following mortar attacks on its territories.
