The European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza said the group's Marianne ship which left Sweden last week arrived in Germany's Kehl port on Sunday en route to the French port of Brest.
A member of the European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza, Khamis Kart, said in a statement yesterday that the ship was received by a large gathering of activists and Palestinians living in Germany and members of the European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza as well as representatives of the Palestinian assembly in Germany.
The campaign continues its meeting with the Freedom Flotilla III team in the Greek capital Athens where the two are expected to hold a press conference on Tuesday.
Deputy President of the Palestinians Assembly in Germany, Fadi Al-Tayesh, who joined the crowds who welcomed the ship, said people cheered for the ship and called for freedom for Palestine and condemned the Israeli siege on Gaza.
The European Campaign to End the Siege on Gaza has launched an international campaign to mobilize support and advocacy politically and diplomatically for the Freedom Flotilla III which included a number of meetings with European parliamentarians and parties' advisers.
The campaign confirmed during these meetings on the need to press Israel to immediately lift the blockade on the Gaza Strip.
The first Freedom Flotilla was led by Turkish Mavi Marmara ship which set off towards the besieged Gaza Strip in May 2010 before Israeli forces attacked it in international waters killing ten activists and injuring others.
