Scuba Weh Diver, AWG Raises Palestinian Flag Under Sea

Sabang, MINA – Professional diver who is a member of the Scuba Weh club, Suheli, expressed his impression of the action of raising the Palestinian and Red and White flags with Aqsa Working Group (AWG) volunteers on Sunday at the Indonesian Zero Kilometer Underwater Monument, Sabang, Aceh .

“I am used to raising the flag on August 17 and have been involved several times. “However, this is the first time raising the Palestinian flag and it was very memorable because I was able to participate in supporting the struggle of the Palestinian people,” said Suheli, who is familiarly called Elly, after raising the flag under the sea.

Elly said that physically she could not directly help the Palestinian people who were being colonized by Zionist Israel.

“I cannot help Palestine, but I can provide moral support and prayers for the Palestinian people by raising the flag under the sea,” he said.

Apart from Elly, the Scuba Weh team, Ikhsan, who took part in the dive and documented all the stages of the dive, also admitted that this was the first time they had raised the Palestinian flag. He was also involved in raising the Red and White flag every August 17.

Meanwhile, the owner of Scuba Weh, Muslim MB, admitted that he was happy to be involved in this activity. He also provided support for the struggle of the Palestinian people. In particular, he paid attention to Palestinian children.

“Hopefully, children in Palestine will no longer become victims of Zionist atrocities. Don’t let any more Palestinian children become victims. Stop, enough!” he said.
