I would LOVE to know the logistical details behind this.
Who and how were they fed? How were they sheltered. Who planned the route, what were the towns told? How did they get across the borders?
Medical? Purchasing? Staffing?
Very convenient too how there just happened to be a large flock of journalists following them. Wouldn’t it make more sense to fly under the radar to avoid border security? Almost makes you think...someone...wants them to get in.
