This buzz around this march is building up nicely - the siege is crumbling on the Egyptian border. Organisers say up to a million could be marching.
Abdel Wahab Mabrouk, Governor of North Sinai, told Ahram Online that the level of preparation in the governorate has been heightened in expectation of a march towards Gaza on 15 May.
