Socialist activist Haitham Gabr was among the first wave of activist reporters who arrived at the borders, and crossed into Gaza... Click on Haitham's pic below to watch some of the photos he took there...
Blogger Nora Younis was there too, she uploaded two sets to her flickr account...
So did journalist Per Björklund...
Great work shabab... I urge Nora and Per Björklund to make their photos available under a Creative Commons License in the future, to help spread the images... At the end of the day, the mainstream publications will still not run those pix unless they pay them a fee, but putting the photos under CC license allows fellow bloggers and activists to use them freely...

Many thanks to Haitham, Nora and Per. I'll give a link to these pics in my Turkish site.
Done ya Hoss.. I am heading back to Gaza in few hours.. I've heard bad news the goods palestinians bought were ma3'shousha.. cheese cans turned out empty and many other stuff were a trick! Beside the LE200 forged note that spread on the border when i was there couple of days ago..
Good luck ya Nora, and stay safe... Keep us posted....
