delegation to iraq and palestine update
arusha | 01.06.2003 20:22
as far as i know the situation is the following:
the delegation was unable to cross over to iraq yesterday. In the evening they went back to Jordan, and spent much of today occupying the Italian embassy, demanding to be able to cross into Iraq. By the afternoon they got an 'ok' from the Italian ambassador, and made their way to a town close to the border with Irak. They plan to cross it tomorrow.
Also, in the no man's land between Jordan and Iraq are a group of Palestinian refugees who feld Iraq during the invasion and are refused entry into Jordan. That is all I know about them for the moment.
