Meanwhile hundreds of Palestinians with dual citizenship are gathered on Rafah Border to cross Egypt. The Gaza Borders and Crossings Authority has released a list of 596 foreign and dual nationals who will be allowed to leave through the Rafah crossing on Thursday after a first group, including 81 critically ill patients, crossed on Wednesday
Egypt will help evacuate “about 7,000” foreigners and dual nationals from Gaza, the Foreign Ministry has said in a statement.
In a meeting with foreign diplomats, Assistant Foreign Minister Ismail Khairat said Egypt was preparing “to facilitate the reception and evacuation of foreign citizens from Gaza through the Rafah crossing”, adding the “number [is] at about 7,000” representing “more than 60” nationalities.
Moreover Gaza officials say 195 killed, 120 missing in Israel’s bombing of Jabalia refugee camp. Jabalia refugee camp is largest of Gaza’s eight refugee camps, one of the most crowded area of Gaza Strip and one of the most densely populated area on earth. Almost 116,011 Palestinians are living in that area of only 1.4 square kilometers since 1948.
UN Security council calls this attack as “disproportionate attacks that could amount to war crimes”.
Amid prolonged fuel blockade in Gaza, Turkish-Palestinian Friendship Hospital, Gaza’s only medical facility serving cancer patients, is forced to shut down after running out of fuel. The Indonesian Hospital is also running on backup generator, which has put this life of many injured at severe risk as all the surgeries require electricity.
