Meanwhile, U.S. President Joe Biden announced the successful evacuation of 74 Americans from Gaza to Egypt. The United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) reported that four of their shelters housing approximately 20,000 Palestinians in the Gaza Strip were hit in the past 24 hours, underscoring the deteriorating humanitarian situation. The U.N. has expressed deep concerns about the Israeli strikes in the vicinity of the Jabaliya refugee camp, suggesting that they may constitute disproportionate attacks that could potentially be classified as war crimes. This situation has developed in the aftermath of an attack by Hamas on October 7, which led to the taking of more than 240 hostages and resulted in Israel declaring war on Hamas, with subsequent bombardments causing significant casualties among Palestinians. According to the Hamas-run Palestinian health ministry, the death toll has now exceeded 9,000. Amid these developments, a group of foreign nationals who had been trapped in Gaza since the conflict began started entering Egypt, with additional evacuations taking place on Thursday.
