Around 500 foreigners and dual nationals, as well as several wounded Palestinians, have been evacuated from the Israeli-bombed Gaza Strip to Egypt, according to reports from both sides of the border, AFP reports.

Some “500 foreign nationals from 15 different countries entered Egypt,” an Egyptian security official told AFP on condition of anonymity.

AlQahera News, an outlet close to the Egyptian intelligence services, reported the crossing of an additional “seven wounded Palestinians” through the terminal.
