Critically ill children evacuated from Gaza to Egypt

Описание к видео Critically ill children evacuated from Gaza to Egypt

Critically ill children boarded buses outside the Nasser Medical Complex in Khan Yunis Thursday before being evacuated from the war-ravaged Gaza Strip into Egypt through the Kerem Shalom Israeli crossing.

It is the first evacuation from Gaza since the Rafah border crossing was closed in early May, when Israeli forces took over the Palestinian side of the terminal.

According to Mohammad Zakut, a senior official in Gaza's health ministry, nearly 5,000 patients have been evacuated since the war began, but 25,000 more "still require treatment abroad.”
