Critically Ill Children Depart Gaza Through Medical Evacuation
ai generated text
According to reports, a medical evacuation operation was conducted by Israel and Egypt, allowing 68 people, including sick and injured patients and their escorts, to leave Gaza. The group included at least 19 critically ill children, including five with cancer, who were transported through the Kerem Shalom crossing into Israel. This marks the first such evacuation in nearly two months, as Israel's sole travel crossing was shut down after its capture in early May.
More than 10,000 patients still require medical care outside the Strip. Of the 13,872 people who have applied for medical evacuation since 7 October, only 35% have been evacuated.
Medical evacuation corridors must be urgently established for the sustained, organized, safe, and timely passage of critically ill patients from Gaza via all possible routes.
