INTERNATIONAL / By Luis Moreno

A third group of 29 Spanish-Palestinians left Gaza this Wednesday through the Rafah crossing towards Egypt, completing the exit operation for the 143 registered at the Consulate who had expressed their desire to be evacuated and for whom authorization had been processed.

This was indicated by diplomatic sources, who added that all of them will concentrate in Cairo from where they will fly to Madrid in the next few hours.

Last Monday, a total of forty Spanish-Palestinian or their relatives left Gaza, and yesterday, Tuesday, another 74 did so.

The departure of these groups has occurred with prior authorization from Israel and with the approval of Egypt, since both countries must give their green light to the departure of these people through the Rafah crossing.
