Starving Gazans hold a speedboat race

Ma'an (Arabic) reports that there was a speedboat race off the coast of Gaza today.

12 boats participated in the competition.

The boats have 40 hp engines.

They want to be able to compete internationally.

I think they have a good chance to beat the teams from the other starving nations of Congo, Somalia and the Sudan.

On the other hand, don't count the Congo out of the competition. They're really hungry.
