Egypt: Dozens of foreigners leave Gaza today, over 60 of them are Americans

According to Egyptian authorities, the Rafah border crossing between Egypt and Gaza will open on Thursday for dozens of foreign nationals to leave the war-torn strip.

A list published by the Egyptian Border and Borders Authority includes 63 US citizens along with citizens of Romania, the United Kingdom, Ukraine and Kazakhstan. It also includes 13 United Nations personnel who intend to enter Gaza, CNN reports.

Rafah is the only border crossing in Gaza not controlled by Israel, and has been a vital conduit for aid to enter the enclave and for people to escape fighting since Israel's war with Hamas began in October.
