Belarus evacuates 43 citizens, their family members from Gaza Strip

The Pul Pervogo Telegram channel has posted the footage showing Belarusians evacuated from the Gaza Strip.

Belarusian citizens and their family members were met at Egypt's border with the Gaza Strip by employees of the State Security Committee. The rescue operation was ordered by the Belarusian president.

“As our head of state said, food is expensive, while people are priceless. Be strong, this nightmare is over,” said people on the video as they addressed the refugees.

The Ministry of Foreign Affairs reported earlier that Belarus, in contact with Israel and Egypt, as well as with the assistance of Russia and Qatar, evacuated Belarusian citizens and their family members from the Gaza Strip. Forty-three people passed through the Rafah border crossing into the territory of Egypt.
