East Jerusalem: An international electronic campaign organized by the European Campaign to Lift Gaza Siege kicked off Saturday to shed light on Gaza suffering under Israeli siege.
Member of the European Campaign Raed Salahat said that the electronic campaign will be continued until January 18 in seven European languages, Mi'raj Islamic News Agency (MINA) reported quoting the Palestinian Information Center.
The electronic campaign will occur in coincidence with the European Solidarity Weeks throughout Europe, he added.
The campaign has received a huge response and support within a day of its launch.
"Large numbers of activists and European institutions have declared their intentions to participate in the solidarity campaign", said Salahat.
The campaign aims at mobilizing international solidarity with Gaza Strip in light of the very difficult humanitarian situation suffered by the people of Gaza for eight years under unjust siege by Israeli occupation.
The European Campaign to Lift Gaza Siege has earlier declared a set of solidarity events throughout Europe to mark the sixth anniversary of Israeli aggression on Gaza 2008/2009.
