MUSHEIR AL-FARRA knows the value of direct links between Palestine activists in Britain and Palestinians living under the reality of daily repression and violence inflicted on them by Israel.
Although he has lived in Sheffield in South Yorkshire since 1989, he is from Khan Younis in Gaza, currently under bombardment.
He came to Britain to study for a master’s degree in civil and structural engineering in Cardiff and decided to stay. He is chair of Sheffield Palestine Solidarity campaign. The group’s links with Palestine go back to 1995 and are understandably with people in Gaza.
