More Britons are expected to leave Gaza through the Rafah crossing with Egypt today.

Cabinet minister Michelle Donelan said around 200 British nationals are trapped in Gaza and that “our focus is on getting them out” via Egypt.

”The Foreign Office has said that some people have managed to get over that border and we are anticipating that there will be more coming,” the Science Secretary told GB News.

”I know that the Border Force stands ready and that our teams on the ground have been in touch with many individuals.”

It follows reports that dozens of Hamas terrorists were killed by IDF soldiers with brigade fire from artillery, tanks and a missile ship to attack from the sea overnight.
