Welcome home ceremony for Kia Ora Gaza team

A six-person Kia Ora Gaza team was part of the huge Gaza aid convoy that successfully broke Israel's blockade a few days ago to deliver desperately-needed medical supplies along with a message of international solidarity.

"Our Kiwi volunteers are authentic heros who put their bodies on the line to help people in need on the other side of the world," said Grant Morgan, co-organiser of Kia Ora Gaza.

"We are celebrating their historic victory with a welcome home celebration upon their arrival at the airport. We invite all supporters of Kia Ora Gaza to join in this special occasion."

"We hope a big crowd will turn out to honour Roger Fowler, Chris van Ryn, Julie Webb-Pullman, Pat O'Dea, Mousa Taher and Hone Fowler, our six courageous Kiwis returning from Gaza."

WHEN: 12.30pm this Sunday, 31 October.
WHERE: Public arrivals area, ground floor, Auckland International Airport.
