Pastors for Peace Caravan to Cuba Aid Seized at Texas-Mexico Border

50 donated computers have been seized so far as volunteers attempt to cross the U.S.-Mexico border with humanitarian aid

Interreligious Foundation for Community Organization/Pastors for Peace, an organization leading over 100 volunteers on the 19th U.S.-Cuba Friendship Caravan has had 50 donated computers seized by U.S. Customs this morning in Pharr, Texas.

The computers along with the rest of the nearly 100 tons of humanitarian aid are destined for Cuba. The participants of the 19th U.S.-Cuba Friendship Caravan are demanding an end to the 47-year-old U.S. blockade against Cuba, as well as the liberation of the "Cuban Five", five Cubans who are being held in U.S. jails for protecting their people against U.S.-government-sponsored terrorism.

You can read the Caravan's blog here:

Please call your representatives, media officials, and anyone else to help prevent the seizure of donated humanitarian aid for Cubans, while securing the safe passage of the Caravan volunteers into Mexico.
