Published 8 months, 1 week ago
Description
It’s been nearly two years since the start of the conflict between Israel and Hamas.
There’s intense international pressure for the two sides to enter into a ceasefire to get food to starving women and children.
Souher Gonzales of northwest suburban Morton Grove is leading an effort to get much needed food and other necessities to Palestinians in Gaza.
She founded a non-profit group last year called the Watermelon Sisters.
Souher joins us to talk about the group’s efforts.
