Israel arranges the passage of 68 sick and injured children and adult companions from the Gaza Strip to Egypt through the Kerem Shalom Crossing, according to the IDF’s Coordination of Government Activities in the Territories.
The effort is carried out in coordination with the US, Egypt, and the international community, says the IDF.
COGAT says the move is part of a policy “to enable and alleviate the operation of medical facilities on a sufficient scale in the Gaza Strip.”
The unit adds that Israel will continue to cooperate with the international community to allow Gazans to receive medical treatment outside the Gaza Strip.
