Tried that several days ago. They said that the Israeli navy turned them back when they tried.
I was afraid of that. Well, it works in the movies :-)
I have no idea how far you are from the port, but honestly it looks like people are have just went ahead and traveled to the port to wait it out at the port.
Is there a group with you at the hotel that are also trying to get out? - Maybe you all should travel as group to the port and wait it out there.
Did you read this?

"Tried that several days ago. They said that the Israeli navy turned them back when they tried."
Unfortunate situation you are in. Too bad your UN protection Flew the COOP...
We should never trust the UN for anything ....Useless Nation in my opinion.
I don't find it unusual that Israel is taking special precautions , under the circumstances.
Good Luck
I'd never go back to the lands of the headchoppers in the future, if i were you.
