According to Foreign Secretary Penny Wong, there are no Australian nationals among the 400 foreigners leaving Gaza’s borders with Egypt.
Egypt will allow up to 400 foreigners to leave its borders with Gaza from Wednesday.
“We’re going to see our Australians leave Gaza; we have 88 Australians and their families,” Ms Wong told Sky News Australia.
“We need the passage, we have asked for humanitarian pauses to allow aid and assistance to enter and civilians to leave.
“As an Australian government, we have a legal responsibility to continue to stand up for the protection of Australian citizens. “
