Norwegian Friends last week returned disappointed from an attempt to make contact with the kindergartens and trauma counselling projects for children in Gaza that they fund. Kvekerhjelp (Quaker Service Norway) representatives had originally planned to visit many of the fifteen or so kindergartens they run, and had made the necessary arrangements to do so with the Israeli government and border authorities. However, when they arrived at the border of Gaza they were told that there were issues that needed resolving and to return in an hour – a process that, although they were never actually denied entry, then recurred repeatedly for a week before they gave up and returned home.
