KUALA LUMPUR, Oct 7 – All 23 Malaysians who participated in the Global Sumud Flotilla (GSF) mission will be arriving home tonight at 10 pm, one of the activists, Muhammad Nadir Al-Nuri Kamaruzaman, confirmed.
In a Facebook post, Muhammad Nadir, who is also the CEO of Cinta Gaza Malaysia, all of them would also attend the GSF gathering slated to be held at Axiata Arena, Bukit Jalil, on Wednesday night.
“Tomorrow night (Wednesday), we will stand in solidarity once again at Axiata Arena, starting at 6 pm. My friends and I want to deliver the mandate and message of two years of Gaza being ravaged by genocide.
“Yes, today (Oct 7) marks two years since they (Palestinians) were killed. This is not about us, it’s about them. We only carry their spirit and voice so that we continue to act without hesitation, to care without pause. It’s about them,” he posted.
The flight carrying them are expected to land at the Kuala Lumpur International Airport (KLIA) Terminal 1.
Yesterday, Sumud Nusantara Command Centre (SNCC) director-general Datuk Dr Sani Araby Abdul Alim Araby said the SNCC extends the invitation to all supporters and media friends to the Homecoming Welcome of the Heroes of Sumud Nusantara Malaysia at the airport.
