Some 36,000 Gazans, or almost 2% of the coastal enclave’s population, have left the Strip since the start of the war prompted by Hamas’s Oct. 7, 2023, massacre.

Most of the departing Gazans went to Egypt, Jordan, the United Arab Emirates, countries in Western Europe and Romania, the report said.

According to Channel 12 Palestinian Affairs Correspondent Ohad Hemo, 2,000 Gazans exited through Israeli territory, including via the Ramon Airport near Eilat or the Allenby Crossing with Jordan.
