A group of dual nationals have left Gaza for Egypt through Rafah, a border official has said, a day after the crossing point reopened for foreign passport holders and wounded Palestinians.
According to AFP, Wael Abu Mohsen, spokesman for the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing, said in a statement that “100 travellers of foreign nationalities” had crossed into Egypt on Thursday morning, escaping the bombarded Palestinian territory.
A total of 400 foreign passport holders as well as 60 wounded patients were due to cross by the day’s end, Abu Mohsen said.
