While many Egyptians have praised the initiative on social media, Egyptian authorities have maintained a conspicuous silence, with no clear statement regarding whether the convoy will be allowed to enter Gaza.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-8\" data-start=\"938\" data-end=\"1287\">The convoy includes hundreds of volunteers from Tunisia and Algeria, traveling in more than 160 vehicles loaded with medical and humanitarian supplies. It has received significant praise across the Maghreb region as a symbol of Arab grassroots solidarity with Palestine and a political message urging international pressure to end the siege on Gaza.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-9\" data-start=\"1289\" data-end=\"1679\">However, the arrest of three Algerian lawyers at Cairo International Airport\u2014who had intended to join the convoy\u2014sparked outrage. Lawyer Fatiha Rouibi reported that Egyptian authorities detained her colleagues without legal justification, confiscated their phones and documents, and held them alongside 37 other convoy participants. She called on Algerian authorities to intervene urgently.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"ai-optimize-16\" data-start=\"0\" data-end=\"108\">Uncertainty Grows as Egypt Detains Gaza Convoy Activists, Faces Pressure to Allow Passage<\/h3>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-10\" data-start=\"1681\" data-end=\"1901\">Rouibi added that no formal Egyptian explanation was given, and those detained\u2014including all Algerians in the group\u2014were likely to be deported. The detainees reportedly had no political agenda, only humanitarian motives.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18653\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18653\" style=\"width: 1024px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18653 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/19-3-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"On Tuesday morning, the Convoy of Steadfastness to break the siege on Gaza entered the Libyan city of Zawiya, 30 kilometers west of Tripoli, where it was met with a large public reception.\" width=\"1024\" height=\"576\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/19-3-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/19-3-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/19-3-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/19-3-390x220.jpg 390w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/19-3.jpg 1155w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18653\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Gaza solidarity convoy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-11\" data-start=\"1903\" data-end=\"2219\">Egyptian human rights activist Aida Seif El-Dawla denounced the detentions, and several arriving activists confirmed they were held for four hours without clarification and later told they might be deported.

Egyptian media figures aligned with the government, like Ahmed Moussa, warned of potential political manipulation behind the convoy. A senior security official reportedly claimed the initiative aims to politically embarrass Egypt.<\/p>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-13\" data-start=\"2665\" data-end=\"3144\">Meanwhile, prominent Egyptian activists and intellectuals expressed strong support for the convoy. Rights lawyer Mahienour El-Massry called the mission \u201can important act of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/2025\/06\/10\/human-flood-maghreb-solidarity-convoy-sweeps-through-tunisia-toward-gaza\/\">solidarity<\/a>\u201d and warned that blocking it would be \u201ca national disgrace.\u201d Activist Ramy Shaath argued that the convoy reflects growing global outrage against Israel\u2019s siege and warned that suppressing the effort would reinforce international claims that Egypt is complicit in Gaza\u2019s starvation and suffering.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_18691\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-18691\" style=\"width: 1000px\" class=\"wp-caption alignleft\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-18691 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/139.jpg\" alt=\"Party Urges Egypt to Embrace Global Gaza Solidarity and Support Peaceful Convoys\" width=\"1000\" height=\"600\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/139.jpg 1000w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/139-300x180.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.watanserb.com\/en\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/139-768x461.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-18691\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Steadfastness Convoy<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p class=\"ai-optimize-14\" data-start=\"3146\" data-end=\"3375\">Tunisian participant Islam Awadi said they received \u201cpositive signals\u201d from Egyptian authorities about possible passage through Rafah.
