Dozens of Egyptian passport and ID holders, who want to leave the Gaza Strip have been stuck for weeks at the black metal gate at the border between Egypt and Gaza Strip. They are desperate to exit the region on account of the ongoing war between Israel and Hamas.

Since the war broke out, many Egyptians desperate to escape Israel’s incessant bombing have left their homes in Gaza and camped around the black metal gate on its southern frontier, hoping to cross over as Israel continues its aerial bombing across Gaza. The war erupted after Hamas killed some 1,200 people and seized around 240 captives in the surprise Oct. 7 attack.

More than 20,900 Palestinians, two-thirds of them women and children, have since been killed, according to Hamas. The ongoing war has been a matter of great concern. Despite the huge loss of lives and disruptions, the war is continuing without any abatement.
