Up to 730 foreign nationals expected to cross through Rafah on Saturday: Egyptian source

Up to 730 foreign nationals are expected to leave Gaza through the Rafah crossing on Saturday, according to an official source on the Egyptian side of Rafah.

The expected nationalities include 55 Egyptians, 386 Americans, 112 British, 77 French and 151 Germans.

The Al-Qahera News Channel announced Wednesday morning that the first group of dual-nationality Palestinians have arrived at the Rafah crossing from the Palestinian side.

The Al-Qahera News Channel reporter said that the procedures for dual-nationality Palestinians are now being completed on the Palestinian side of the Rafah crossing, in addition to allocating aid vehicles to transport the wounded from the Gaza Strip to Egyptian hospitals.

According to Reuters, a Qatar-mediated agreement was reached between Egypt, Hamas, and Israel to allow for the crossing of foreign passport holders and some critically injured people out of besieged Gaza.
