"Marmara 2" land convoy members stopped, threatened by Egyptian security

Last week I reported on the "Marmara 2" land convoy that was stuck at the Tunisia/Libyan border because some members had visa problems.

After losing a week, it looks like the convoy has made it to Egypt - but it has been delayed there for five days as well.

Moreover, reports say that the border police at the Salloum crossing between Libya and Egypt have been threatening and insulting the convoy's leaders, telling them to go back to Libya.

The Islamic world isn't welcoming this effort to supposedly give aid to Gaza.
