Scope of Gazans fleeing the territory: 36 thousand have left so far to Hamas's dismay

Since the war began, over 36 thousand people have left the Gaza Strip - an unprecedented number, showing a growing emigration trend.

There is a growing wave of emigration from the Gaza Strip, mostly through the Rafah Crossing into Egyptian territory. According to a report by Channel 12, approximately 2,000 of the emigrants left through Israeli territory, some via the Allenby Crossing on the Jordanian border and others via the Ramon Airport to other countries. However, most emigrants have been leaving through the Rafah Crossing, which was reopened for exit only at the beginning of the ceasefire.

According to the report, only specific groups can leave legally: Sick patients who need medical treatment outside of Gaza, civilians with foreign passports, and residents who received visas from other countries that agreed to officially accept them.

Many countries are involved in accepting refugees, some as a temporary destination and others as a permanent solution. Among the outstanding countries are Egypt, Jordan, the UAE, western European countries, and Romania, which especially stood out due to the number of refugees accepted.

Hamas strongly objects to the emigration and sees it as a threat to its control over the territory. According to Hamas spokesmen, the process is in line with the plan that US President Donald Trump proposed to transfer Palestinian Arabs to other countries.

Internet influencers who are affiliated with Hamas have launched media campaigns calling on residents to remain in Gaza...

Can't they just claim they were all killed by the IDF?

I picture Hamas as Scarlett, and the Palis leaving as Rhett. As the credits roll, Scarlett says, "Tomorrow I weel keel them. Tomorrow ees another day."

So, you see, with so many juveniles and adolescents, and mothers with dependent children, it’s damned hard to just pick up and leave.

Not Israel’s problem. FAFO. I hope none of them come to the U.S.

Hamas has a problem they are letting their human shields/hostages escape & this will caúse the Israelis toincrease thier efforts .

[Eleutheria5]

The more who emigrate, the less it is Israel’s problem, because those people are not available to be forced to take a bullet for one of those cowardly dirt bags.

Hamas will End.

Houthis control of Yemen will End.

Syria is talking deal, the Abraham Accord. (never trust Terrorist leaders).

Iran will be dealt with.
