Between 80,000 and 100,000 Palestinians have crossed into Egypt from Gaza since the start of the Israeli war on Gaza on October 7, the Palestinian ambassador to Cairo said Thursday.

Ambassador Diab Allouh told AFP that they had made their way over the frontier, without specifying how. The Rafah border crossing is the sole entry and exit point to Gaza not directly under the control of Israeli forces.
