Koreans-Gaza evacuation
5 S. Koreans from Gaza arrived in Egypt via Rafah border: ministry
SEOUL, Nov. 2 (Yonhap) -- A South Korean family living in Gaza crossed into Egypt through the Rafah border Thursday, Seoul's foreign ministry said.
Media reports earlier said, quoting authorities from Gaza, that around 600 foreign nationals, including South Koreans, were allowed to leave through the Rafah border Thursday, the second such departure since the border opened up to foreigners and aid workers Wednesday for the first time since the Israel-Hamas war.
The family, consisting of five members, arrived in Egypt after crossing the Rafah border at around 11:15 a.m. (local time), the ministry said.
