GAZA CITY (Ma’an) -- A group of families from the Gaza Strip visited relatives in Israeli jails early Monday, in the second visit of its kind since 2007, a prisoners group said.
A bus carrying 52 people set out from the offices of the International Committee of the Red Cross in Gaza City to the Erez crossing, before family members were transferred to Nafha prison facility, Gaza-based prisoners group Waed said.
The Palestinian liaison department said only 33 out of the 52 family members were allowed to continue their journey by Israeli authorities.
Last week, 48 people from Gaza visited relatives in Israeli jails for the first time since 2007. more
