People Before Profit TD Paul Murphy has had his passport returned by Egyptian authorities, but says they have not had his phone returned after he was detained at a protest march yesterday.
Mr Murphy was among a group detained in Egypt as around 3,000 activists worldwide were due to begin marching across the Sinai Desert on Friday to the Rafah border, demanding the opening of the crossing, the delivery of aid, and an end to Israel’s ongoing bombardment of Gaza.
