Venezuelans Donate Tons of Goods for Gaza

The Venezuelan Ministry of Foreign Affairs in Caracas has been transformed into a hub of activity over the past few days, as Venezuelans respond en masse to the government’s call to provide donations for the people of the besieged Gaza strip in Palestine.
“We have more than a plane’s worth of donations to send, more than two tons of food, clothes and medicine,” explained Danielis Escalona Arellano, Coordinator of Culture and Solidarity for Venezuelan Dispatch to Asia, the Middle East and Oceania, who has been directing the effort.
“There is a lot of love for the people of Palestine, we are all brothers and all united for the Palestinian cause,” she added.
Marvin Mijares, Venezuelan Cultural Dipatch to Asia, said, “Israel does not respect human rights. Venezuela is responding, we are a humanist country, we are supporting them with all our might.”
