Foreign passport holders wait at Rafah border for evacuation to Egypt

Palestinian dual nationals and foreigners wait to pass through the Rafah border crossing from the southern Gaza Strip to Egypt.

“We've been waiting for a while for our names to be added to the list,” says Mazen Danaf, a German passport holder.

The Rafah crossing was opened on 1 November for three days before it closed again amid a dispute over the passage of ambulances.

Departures resumed on 6 November.
