Yana Abuhajaras, a Russian woman evacuated from the Gaza Strip, said that the area near the Rafah checkpoint was bombed. This was reported by TASS.
“We sit down and see a bomb fly and a house explode. Ordinary people are dying – families, children, grandparents – like you and me,” the woman shared.
According to him, the area near the checkpoint is “very scary and dangerous.” A woman with two young children decided to move to Moscow, while her husband stayed there to help his elderly parents.
Another Russian woman who was evacuated from Gaza said that everything was there: her home, her job, her family, her children, her grandchildren. She’s 50 now and doesn’t know how to start over.
Before that, the Ministry of Emergencies of the Russian Federation reportedThe number of Russians evacuated from the Gaza Strip in a week reached 550. The first Russian citizens crossed the Gaza Strip border at the Rafah checkpoint on November 12.
On the night of November 19, 120 citizens and their family members arrived in Moscow on the Il-76 belonging to the Russian Emergencies Ministry.
Russians who previously fled the Gaza Strip said about life in a war zone.
