Twenty nine premature babies have arrived in Egypt, Egyptian media said, after they were evacuated from Gaza’s largest hospital, AFP reports.

The infants were evacuated yesterday from the Al-Shifa hospital, which the World Health Organisation has described as a “death zone” as Israel seeks to uncover what it says are Hamas bases in tunnels underneath the facility.

An initial 31 babies were reported evacuated from Al-Shifa to another Gaza clinic and it was not immediately clear why only 29 arrived in Egypt.
