라파 개방 이틀째 340여명 출국 한국국적 5명도 국경 통과 Meanwhile following the humanitarian breakthrough at the Rafah crossing. More foreigners and injured Palestinians crossed into Egypt on the second day of Rafah's opening including 5 South Korean nationals. Shin Se-byuck reports using her AI reporter. On the second day of the Rafah crossing reopening on Thursday, 344 foreign nationals and dual citizens as well as dozens of severely injured Palestinians passed through the Egypt-Gaza border. The Rafah crossing is the only Gaza border crossing that isn't under Israeli control and is a crucial gateway for humanitarian support. “So we finally got the chance to almost leave Gaza. This is my fifth attempt to leave.“ Thursday's crossings follow the at least 361 foreign nationals and 76 injured Palestinians who were able to cross into Egypt on Wednesday. The Egyptian government said it plans to help evacuate around 7-thousand foreigners and dual nationals from the Gaza Strip, without providing a specific timeline. Among those crossing the border on Thursday were a South Korean family. According to Seoul's foreign ministry, the family of five, who were the only South Koreans living in the Gaza Strip, were safely evacuated to Egypt on Thursday. “I have a Korean nationality and we live in Gaza Thank God, today, we left Gaza to Egypt. Thankfully, we left behind the war, this situation, but our family and relatives are still in Gaza.“ The ministry said the family arrived in Egypt at around 11:15 a.m. local time and they are being provided with consular assistance including accommodation and medical checkups. Meanwhile, a Japanese aircraft, bringing 15 South Koreans and one foreign national family member departed Tel Aviv for Tokyo on Thursday,.. along with Japanese nationals. It is the second flight Japan is providing to South Korea, following the offering of 20 seats last month. This is seen as returning the favor, after Seoul brought back some 50 Japanese nationals along with South Koreans from Israel on October 14. With this, there are 420 South Korean citizens remaining in Israel.
