Gazans with foreign passports stuck at Rafah border

Foreigners and Palestinians with dual nationalities were eagerly awaiting to leave Gaza through the Rafah Border crossing on Friday (November 3).

Among the crowd was Palestinian father of two, Himam Al-Yaziji, whose son has a US passport.

"Of course, I am worried about my parents who I left behind, but we were split between leaving for our kids, or staying for our family. God willing, I will return to see my parents," said Yaziji.

After a total blockade of Gaza for more than three weeks, foreign passport-holders and some wounded were allowed out at the southern end.

Palestinian border official Wael Abu Mehsen said 400 foreign citizens would leave for Egypt via the Rafah crossing on Thursday, after some 320 on Wednesday. Dozens of critically injured Palestinians were to cross too.
