Palestine: 4,000 Marry in Mass Wedding Ceremony in Gaza

2015-06-03 2

A mass wedding ceremony in the Gaza Strip on Monday saw 4,000 Palestinians tie the knot. Tens of thousands participated in the ceremony in downtown Gaza City. The ceremony was focused on relatives of martyrs and political prisoners and couples from poor families. The event was funded by the Turkish government as a gesture of solidarity. Were it not for the funded ceremony, many of the couples would not have been able to get married due to financial constraints. Noor Harazeen reports from Gaza. teleSUR
