Watch: The European Union’s Envoy Demonstrates Paragliding To Gazans

Forbes Israel October 12, 2023

Just three months ago, EU’s envoy to Gaza, Sven Kuhn von Burgsdorff, took a provocative paraglide flight over Gaza, despite Israel’s efforts to prevent the use of such equipment due to fears of terrorist attacks. “This is the first flight in the history of Gaza,” declared the European envoy, a statement that in hindsight appears both prophetic and shocking. “We are showing you the way forward… You too can do it! Free Palestine!” At least 1,300 Israelis were murdered in Hamas terror attack which used dozens of such paraglides
